Accepting a Self-Signed Server Certificate

To instruct your browser to accept the eFTL server’s certificate, complete this task.

Procedure

  1. Enter the server’s URL in the browser’s URL pane, using this template:
    https://eFTL_server_host:port

    The browser displays a security dialog.

  2. Inspect the server’s certificate to ensure that it is genuine and correct.

    If it is not, then do not complete the remaining steps of this task.

  3. Resolve the security issue by trusting the server’s certificate.

    Some browsers use alternate terminology, such as accepting the certificate, or allowing an exception for this server or certificate.

  4. Connect the browser to the server using this address template:
    wss://eFTL_server_host:port/channel
