The Manager/Central Manager uses SSL certificate to establish a trusted TLS Connection with the client machines. By default, the Manager uses a self-signed certificate.
You can also use a CA-signed certificate chain issued by trusted CAs such as Verisign, GeoTrust, etc. to establish trust between the Manager server and the client machine.
Note
The CA-signed certificate for Web Server Authentication must be in P12 format.
To view the SSL Certificate page in the Manager, go to Manager → <Admin Domain Name> → Setup → Certificates. Select GUI Certificate tab. The GUI Certificate tab is displayed.
