Certificates
A site certificate is needed for a browser to allow access to the FF240-IP unit. This certificate is self-
signed, so your browser will likely show a security warning (which simply means the certificate is not
authenticated by a third party) before you can continue. Use this page to replace the default certificate
with the one that contains details specific to your installation. These values are for identification
purposes only. Creating a new certificate will require a reboot of the FF240-IP. A pop-up will warn of this
and allow you to cancel the changes if necessary.

After generating a new certificate, you may have to make an allowance in your web browser to log back
in to the FF240-IP unit. Browsers will not allow access without a valid certificate and the FF240-IP does
have a valid certificate, but it is self-signed (i.e. no third party verification), so your browser displays a
warning about this. You may safely continue (Internet Explorer), or in the case of Firefox, temporarily
add the FF240-IP certificate to the exception list. Details on how to add to an exception list can be found
in Chapter 2.
