Apply the license and certificates

Warning

This documentation does not cover web certificate management. For this topic, please refer to the following documentation: Apply a web certificate.

The Mediation Controller server requires at least the following to function:

• A license
• Three certificates:
• One certificate for the SSL Router component
• One certificate for the Watchdog component
• One certificate for the cyberelements Cleanroom client (listed as a plugin in the console)

Information

The information provided on this page applies to all Mediation Controller servers, including those in a cluster configuration. For clusters, it is recommended to access the system interface via the actual IP address of the Mediation Controller server or via a DNS name that redirects to this actual IP address.

License Configuration

Access the Mediation Controller server's web interface with the URI /system.

Examples

If access to the Mediation Controller on its web IP address is 10.0.10.10, then access to the system interface will use the URL: https://10.0.10.10/system.

If access to the Mediation Controller is possible with a DNS name, for example cyberelements-cleanroom.domain.local, then access to the system interface will use the URL: https://cyberelements-cleanroom.domain.local/system.

Important !

For any changes to the password, license, or certificates (SSL Router, Watchdog, and cyberelements Cleanroom client), connect to the actual IP address for clusters (RIP_MED_WEB_MASTER or RIP_MED_WEB_SLAVE).

1. Click on the License and certificates tile.
2. Search for the license file using the Browse... button.
3. Validate the license file.

Configuration of certificates

Access the Mediation Controller server's web interface with the URI /system.

Examples

If access to the Mediation Controller on its web IP address is 10.0.10.10, then access to the system interface will use the URL: https://10.0.10.10/system.

If access to the Mediation Controller is possible with a DNS name, for example cyberelements-cleanroom.domain.local, then access to the system interface will use the URL: https://cyberelements-cleanroom.domain.local/system.

Important !

For any changes to the password, license, or certificates (SSL Router, Watchdog, and cyberelements Cleanroom client), connect to the actual IP address for clusters (RIP_MED_WEB_MASTER or RIP_MED_WEB_SLAVE).

1. Click on the License and certificates tile.
2. Open the Certificates tab.
3. Enter the three certificates with their associated passwords: SSL server, plugin, and Watchdog.

Attention

To apply the new SSL Router certificate, you must restart it. If the platform is already in production, this action will disconnect all Edge Gateways, which will impact user sessions.

1. Click on the Services tile.
2. Restart the SSL server.
3. Restart the Watchdog.
