EnablingSSL
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that provides security and privacy over the Internet by negotiating
encryption keys before transmitting data between a client and a server.
To establish a secure connection, the DXi6900 must have an encryption key assigned to it by a Certification
Authority in the form of a certificate file, private key file, and pass phrase. After you install these components,
you can establish a secure connection using the SSL protocol. The DXi6900 comes with a Quantum default
SSL certificate.
