Machine Digital Certificate Management & 
Trusted Certificate Authorities

This is the procedure to follow to install and setup the Machine Digital Certificate Management:

1.

2.

The machine can be configured for secure access with the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol via 
Digital Certificates. SSL enables secure access to the machine.

SSL requests include:

•

Administration of the machine via Internet Services.

•

Printing via Internet Services.

•

Network Accounting configuration.

To enable SSL on a machine, it needs to have its own digital certificate. When clients make a request to 
the device, it exports the certificate to provide an encrypted channel.

There are 2 options available to obtain a server certificate for the machine:

•

Have the machine create a Self Signed Certificate

•

Create a request to have a Certificate Authority sign a certificate that can be uploaded to the 
machine.

A self-signed certificate means that the machine signs its own certificate as trusted and creates the 
public key for the certificate to be used in SSL encryption.

A certificate from a Certificate Authority or a server functioning as a Certificate Authority (for example 
Windows 2000 running Certificate Services) can be uploaded to the machine. 

Note 

A separate request is required for each Xerox machine.

Ensure that the machine is configured with the following items:

1.

An IP Address or Host Name must be configured on the machine.

2.

DNS must be enabled and configured on the machine.

Note 

 This is used to set the start time for self signed certificates.
