3. In the Tool Panel dialog box, click Update Certificate Files.
If SSL communication has been established, the Security Alert dialog box opens before the

box closes and the Login dialog box opens.
4. In the Login dialog box, enter the administrator user ID and password, and click login. The
Upload dialog box opens.
5. In the Upload dialog box, enter the public key certificate file name in the Certificate file box
and the private Key file name (server.key file) in the Key file box. You can enter the file names
directly or by clicking Browse.

When it takes that long, an internal server error occurs, and the update completion dialog
box does not display. However, the certificate update is complete.
It can take 30 to 60 minutes for the web server to restart. After the SVP restarts, the Completion
dialog box does not appear. Instead, an “internal server error” message is displayed. However,
the setting is actually completed.
