HP BladeSystem 110959 Certificate Administration Information tab

Information tab

This screen displays the detailed information of the SSL certificate currently in use by the Onboard Administrator. An SSL certificate is used to certify the identity of Onboard Administrator and is required by the underlying HTTP server to establish a secure (encrypted) communications channel with the client web browser.

On initial startup, Onboard Administrator generates a default self-signed SSL certificate valid for 10 years, and the certificate is issued to the name of the Onboard Administrator. Because this default certificate is self-signed, the “issued by” field is also set to the same name.
