102 DOMINION SX INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL

Installing CA Root for IE Browsers

Each time you access an SSL-enabled Dominion SX unit, you will see a New Site Certificate window.

Eliminate this window’s appearance by either accepting a session certificate permanently or by installing

the appropriate root certificate in your browser. These instructions apply if you use Internet Explorer. For

Netscape Navigator instructions, please see the next section.

Accept a Certificate (Session-Based)

Accepting a certificate from a particular unit means that the Security Alert window will not appear on your

screen when accessing that particular unit. You will have to repeat the acceptance process for each

Dominion SX unit you wish to access in order to eliminate the Security Alert window. To eliminate the

appearance of this window for every Dominion SX unit with a particular certificate, you must install the

root certificate in your browser, described in the Install the Raritan Root Certificate section that follows.

1. Open IE and connect to the Dominion SX unit’s IP address. The Security Alert window will appear.

2. Click on the [View Certificate] button and the Certificate window will appear.

3. Click on the [Install Certificate] button. This will install the certificate for the current session.

When the session closes, this certificate will expire and will have to be reloaded upon with the next

connection.

Install the Raritan Root Certificate

By installing the Raritan root certificate in IE, you can prevent the Security Alert window from appearing

whenever you access any SSL-secured Dominion SX unit.

1. Open IE and connect to the Dominion SX unit. Enter Username and Password when prompted, and

log on to the unit.

2. Click on Configuration button in the left panel and then click on the Certificate tab. The [Remove

User Certificate] button should be inactive, indicating that a third-party certificate has not been

installed and that the certificate in use is the Raritan default certificate.

3. Click on the [View Certificate] button. The code for the Raritan certificate should appear in the

Certificate field.

4. Select the text in the Certificate field and copy it.

5. Paste the text into a text editor such as Notepad or WordPad, and save it as a CA_ROOT.cer file on

your desktop.
