Prior to adding an asset that uses SSL server certificate validation, add the certificate's root CA and any intermediate CAs to the Trusted Certificates store in SPP. For more information, see Verify SSL Certificate.

You may need to add the syslog server certificate if it is signed by the same CA.

If a certificate upload fails, the audit log reflects: TrustedCertificateUploadFailed or ServerCertificateUploadFailed.

To add a trusted certificate

  1. Go to the following:
    • web client: Navigate to Certificates > Trusted CA Certificates.
  2. Click  Upload New Trusted CA Certificate from the details toolbar.

  3. Browse and select the certificate file then click Open.
  4. On the dialog box, enter the case sensitive passphrase to import the certificate. If the certificate does not have a private key passphrase, leave the field empty and click OK.
