Uploading a certificate

You are not required to upload domain controller certificates. Superdome 2 Onboard Administrator
accepts multiple domain controller certificates, which can be uploaded using the Certificate Upload
tab under Directory Settings.

To upload a certificate:

1.

Get the certificate from the domain controller by opening a browser and entering the following
address:

https://<domain controller>:636

(where domain controller is the IP address for your network domain controller).

2.

When prompted to accept a certificate, click View Certificate.

3.

Click the Details tab, and then click the Copy to File button.

4.

From the list of export options, select Base-64 encoded x.509 (.CER).

5.

Provide a name and location for the file, and finish the Upload a Certificate Wizard.

6.

Locate the exported certificate file, and then rename it with a .txt extension (for example,
dccert.txt).

7.

Open the file in a text editor, and copy the entire contents to the clipboard. The following is
an example of an exported certificate file:
