8  After the DNCS is configured, you can verify that the DNCS HTTP-S server 
certificates are deployed correctly and the STB Staging web service is accessible 
by completing the following steps. 
a  Use a web browser to access the following site: 
https://[ip_address_of_DNCS_host]/dncs/soap/loadPIMS
 
Result: The web browser should prompt you to accept the certificate but 
warn that the certificate was issued by a company that you have not chosen 
to trust, similar to this example: 
 
b  Select the necessary confirmation buttons to allow the web connection to 
continue. 
c  If the STB Staging web service is configured for basic user authentication, a 
username and password prompt should display. Enter a valid STB Staging 
username and password.   
d  If the computer you are using for the test has an IP address that is allowed to 
access the web service, the browser will return a HTTP GET method not 
implemented
 
error message. 
9  If you receive a different error message, review all configuration changes against 
the previously executed procedures and repeat this procedure.
