19.14 Trusted Remote Hosts Import

Click SECURITY > CERTIFICATES > Trusted Remote Hosts to open the Trusted
Remote Hosts
screen and then click Import to open the Trusted Remote Host Import
screen.

You may have peers with certificates that you want to trust, but the certificates were not signed
by one of the certification authorities on the Trusted CAs screen. Follow the instructions in
this screen to save a peer’s certificates from a computer to the ZyWALL.

You do not need to add any certificate that is signed by one of the certification authorities on
the Trusted CAs screen since the ZyWALL automatically accepts any valid certificate signed
by a trusted certification authority as being trustworthy.

Note: The trusted remote host certificate must be a self-signed certificate; and you

must remove any spaces from its filename before you can import it.
