When accessing via HTTPS, the Didactum Monitoring System generates a self-signed certificate. You can use a self-signed or purchased SSL certificate for your Didactum monitoring system. If you already have an SSL certificate, please copy this file to an empty USB drive.
Then rename the certificate to "custom.pem" (without quotation marks). Insert the USB drive into the USB port of your Didactum Monitoring System 100/400/500/500-DC/600. After approximately 90 seconds, you can remove the USB drive. You can then access the Didactum Monitoring System's web interface via HTTPS.
Important:
If you do not have your own SSL certificate, you can create one using OpenSSL. Self-issued SSL certificates are created using OpenSSL as follows:
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey cert.key -out cert.crt
Then copy the contents of "cert.key" and "cert.crt" into a custom "custom.pem" file. After creating the custom.pem file, please proceed as described above.
Didactum alarm servers support SSL-encrypted email alert transmission. All Didactum IT monitoring devices support the SSL, TLS, and STARTTLS encryption protocols.
