Update SDM Client SSL Certificate:
SDM Server uses a self-signed SSL
certificate by default. This certificate can be replaced with a formal certificate
from ARRIS. Refer the SDM Installation Guide for the procedure. When this is done,
it is required to update the SSL certificate at the SDM Client as well.
For HTML Client:
ARRIS Root CA public certificate must be imported into the Firefox browser
certificate store. Refer to the SDM Installation Guide for the procedure.
For Java Client (Windows/Linux):
- Download the new SSL
certificate file (SDMClientSSLStore) from the download link available on the
SDM login page
- Copy the file
SDMClientSSLStore to the conf folder present in the SDM Client folder and
restart the Java Client.
