Certificates

In this section:

1. Importing SmartZone as Client Certificate
   When you have an SSL certificate issued by the certificate provider, you can import it into the controller and use it for HTTPS communication.
2. Assigning Certificates to Services
   You can map certificates to services
3. Generating Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
   If you do not have an SSL certificate, you will need to create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) file and send it to an SSL certificate provider to purchase an SSL certificate.
4. Managing AP Certificates
   AP certificates are valid for a period of time and have to be replaced when they expire.
5. Importing SmartZone (SZ) Trusted CA Certificates/Chains
   When a controller receives a server's certificate, it matches the server's CA against the list of trusted CAs it has. If there is no match, the controller sends an error.
6. DataPlane validates SmartZone
   DataPlane validates the incoming SmartZone certificate to check if the certificate is valid.
7. AP Validate SmartZone Controller
   Access Point (AP) can validate the SZ by SZ's Public Key or trusted certificates.
