You can use the Rack PDU Security Wizard to create a certificate signing request to an
external Certificate Authority, or if you do not want to use an existing Certificate
Authority, you can create a Dell root certificate to upload to the certificate store (cache)
of the browser. You can also use the Wizard to create a server certificate to upload to
the Rack PDU.

SSL also uses various algorithms and encryption ciphers to authenticate the server,
encrypt data, and ensure the integrity of the data, i.e., that it has not been intercepted
and sent by another server.

See

Creating and Installing Digital Certificates

for a summary of how these

certificates are used.
To create certificates and certificate requests, see

Create a Root Certificate

and Server Certificates

and

Create a Server Certificate and Signing Request
