Introduction

Starting with revision 20190627.1746, released on 6/27/2019, the method of importing TLS certificates has changed. Instead of importing them from the CLI, certificates MUST be imported from the Admin Dashboard.


If you have a PFX file, you can get help converting it at one of the below sites:

Accessing the Admin Dashboard

To connect to the Admin Dashboard, open a web browser and connect to https://<netLD-IP>/admin . Replace <netLD-IP> with your appliance’s IP address or resolvable hostname.


If this is your first time connecting to the Admin Dashboard, you will need to create an “API Token” (password). If you are reconnecting to the Admin Dashboard you will need the “API Token” (password) that was previously entered.


  • Enter your API Token and Login.
  • If this is your first visit to the Admin Dashboard, select "API Token Setup".

  • To set your new API Token enter an API Token (password) of your choice (You will need to remember your API Token for future access.) and Confirm your API Token. Then click on the “Update” button

Importing the TLS Certificate

To import your TLS certificate, you will need the following files:
