SSL overview
The ProLiant ML110 G2 Lights-Out 100 remote management processor provides strong security for remote
management in distributed IT environments by using 128-bit SSL encryption of HTTP data transmitted
across the network. SSL encryption ensures that the HTTP information is secure as it travels across the
network.
Before using SSL for the first time, perform the one-time setup procedure detailed in the "Importing an SSL
certificate (on page
Importing an SSL certificate
Before using the new SSL or SSH features of the Lights-Out 100 remote management processor, a public
key (certificate) must be created and installed on the Lights-Out 100. The key must be generated using
external 3rd-party software, placed on a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server and uploaded to the
Lights-Out 100 using a sequence of commands.
