How to Configure Secure HTTP Servers and Clients
Configuring a CA Trustpoint
For secure HTTP connections, we recommend that you configure an official CA trustpoint. A CA trustpoint
is more secure than a self-signed certificate.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a CA Trustpoint:
