10.6 Server Certificate
If you use HTTPS to access the scanner, a security alert will appear on the screen. To prevent the security
alert from appearing, you must install the server certificate. We recommend using a server certificate that
was issued by third-party signing organization (a certificate authority). For details, refer to "10.6.1 Installing a
server certificate" (page 94).
You can also use a certificate issued independently by a non-authority or a self-signed certificate issued by
the scanner. For details, refer to "10.6.2 Installing a self-signed certificate" (page 96).
