Setting the Certificates as Default Certificates

Scenario
For establishing a secured communication between remote or local clients (Installed/Windows/Web App) and the Desigo CC Server system, and to secure the web sites and web application, you want to set the certificates (SMC-created or commercial) as default.

This workflow describes the steps for setting the SMC-created Windows-store based (root, host and self-signed) certificates as the default certificates.

For working with commercial certificates you can directly go to step 4 and proceed further.

For background information, see the reference section.

Prerequisites

• You have launched SMC.
• The commercial certificates:
• are available at a known location on the disk of the computer where you want to launch the clients (Installed/Web/Windows App).
• (root of the host or self-signed used during website creation/modification) are imported in the appropriate Windows-store using Microsoft Management Console (MMC 3.0) on the non- SMC systems.
• You have cleared the previously set default certificates, if any.
