If the default device certificate is missing for the device it will be generated, together with a key
pair, when the IPBS is upgraded to version R3. The default certificate contains the MAC
address of the device and will be valid for 10 years.
If the self-signed certificate is deleted and the device is restarted, a new certificate and key pair
will be generated.
HTTPS is deactivated during the generation (creation) of the certificate.
The default certificate is a self-signed certificate. This means that certificates cannot be verified
and thus the user/administrator will be prompted by the web browser to accept the certificate
before it can be used. From this point on within the browser session (as long as the certificate is
not changed) communication between the browser and the device is possible without further
accept operations from the user/administrator.
If the device certificate is replaced or regenerated the user/administrator has to manually accept
the new certificate.
