15.5.5.2 Avoiding Browser Warning Messages
Here are the main reasons your browser displays warnings about the NWA3000-N
series AP’s HTTPS server certificate and what you can do to avoid seeing the
warnings:
• The issuing certificate authority of the NWA3000-N series AP’s HTTPS server
certificate is not one of the browser’s trusted certificate authorities. The issuing
certificate authority of the NWA3000-N series AP's factory default certificate is
the NWA3000-N series AP itself since the certificate is a self-signed certificate.
• For the browser to trust a self-signed certificate, import the self-signed
certificate into your operating system as a trusted certificate.
• To have the browser trust the certificates issued by a certificate authority,
import the certificate authority’s certificate into your operating system as a
trusted certificate. Refer to
Appendix C on page 309
for details.
15.5.5.3 Login Screen
After you accept the certificate, the NWA3000-N series AP login screen appears.
The lock displayed in the bottom of the browser status bar denotes a secure
connection.
