Use the Certificate Manager to manually install a certificate from a certificate authority (CA). This action copies the certificate to the user's local certificate store (/usr/local/share/ca-certificates) and configures OpenSSL to use the certificate for connection verification. If desired, use Profile Editor to attach the certificate to a profile, as described in Adding certificates to a client profile on page 63. NOTE: Generally, a self-signed certificate will work as long as it is valid according to specification and can be verified by OpenSSL. SCEP Manager To open the SCEP Manager: ▲ Select Advanced > SCEP Manager in Control Panel. Use the SCEP Manager when you need to enroll or renew client-side certificates from a CA. During an enrollment or renewal, the SCEP Manager generates the thin client's private key and certificate request, and then it sends the request to the CA on the SCEP server. When the CA issues the certificate, the certificate is returned and placed in the thin client's certificate store. OpenSSL uses the certificate for connection verification. NOTE: Before enrollment, make sure that the SCEP server is configured properly. Use the Identifying tab of the SCEP Manager to enter information about the user, if desired. NOTE: The Common Name is required and is the thin client's Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) by default. The other information is all optional. The Country or Region is entered as two letters, such as US for the United States and CN for China. Use the Servers tab of the SCEP Manager to add SCEP servers and enroll or renew certificates. TIP: When entering a new SCEP server, save the server information first, and then use the Settings button to go back and do an enrollment. DHCP options To open the DHCP Option Manager: ▲ Select Advanced > DHCP Options in Control Panel. The DHCP Option Manager displays details of the DHCP options that are requested by the thin client. TIP: The drop-down list in the lower-left corner of the DHCP Option Manager allows you to filter which DHCP tags are displayed. To direct the thin client to request or ignore specific DHCP options: ▲ Select or deselect the checkboxes in the Requested column. If a pencil is shown in the DHCP Code column, the code number can be changed in case there is a conflict on your DHCP server over a particular code number. To change a DHCP code: ▲ Double-click the DHCP code and type a new number. NOTE: Changeable DHCP codes can only be changed while that DHCP option is enabled in the Requested column. 54 Chapter 5 Control Panel

Use the

Certiﬁcate

Manager to manually install a

certiﬁcate

from a

certiﬁcate

authority (CA). This action

copies the

certiﬁcate

to the user’s local

certiﬁcate

store

(/usr/local/share/ca-certiﬁcates)

and

conﬁgures

OpenSSL to use the

certiﬁcate

for connection

veriﬁcation.

If desired, use

Proﬁle

Editor to attach the

certiﬁcate

to a

proﬁle,

as described in

Adding

certiﬁcates

to a client

proﬁle

on page

NOTE:

Generally, a self-signed

certiﬁcate

will work as long as it is valid according to

speciﬁcation

and can be

veriﬁed

by OpenSSL.

SCEP Manager

To open the SCEP Manager:

▲

Select

Advanced > SCEP Manager

in Control Panel.

Use the SCEP Manager when you need to enroll or renew client-side

certiﬁcates

from a CA.

During an enrollment or renewal, the SCEP Manager generates the thin client’s private key and

certiﬁcate

request, and then it sends the request to the CA on the SCEP server. When the CA issues the

certiﬁcate,

the

certiﬁcate

is returned and placed in the thin client’s

certiﬁcate

store. OpenSSL uses the

certiﬁcate

for

connection

veriﬁcation.

NOTE:

Before enrollment, make sure that the SCEP server is

conﬁgured

properly.

Use the

Identifying

tab of the SCEP Manager to enter information about the user, if desired.

NOTE:

The

Common Name

is required and is the thin client’s Fully

Qualiﬁed

Domain Name (FQDN) by

default. The other information is all optional. The

Country or Region

is entered as two letters, such as US for

the United States and CN for China.

Use the

Servers

tab of the SCEP Manager to add SCEP servers and enroll or renew

certiﬁcates.

TIP:

When entering a new SCEP server, save the server information

ﬁrst,

and then use the

Settings

button

to go back and do an enrollment.

DHCP options

To open the DHCP Option Manager:

▲

Select

Advanced > DHCP Options

in Control Panel.

The DHCP Option Manager displays details of the DHCP options that are requested by the thin client.

TIP:

The drop-down list in the lower-left corner of the DHCP Option Manager allows you to

ﬁlter

which DHCP

tags are displayed.

To direct the thin client to request or ignore

speciﬁc

DHCP options:

▲

Select or deselect the checkboxes in the

Requested

column.

If a pencil is shown in the

DHCP Code

column, the code number can be changed in case there is a

conﬂict

your DHCP server over a particular code number.

To change a DHCP code:

▲

Double-click the DHCP code and type a new number.

NOTE:

Changeable DHCP codes can only be changed while that DHCP option is enabled in the

Requested

column.
