When you connect to BAM over HTTPS, use these options to specify custom
SSL certificates and validation. This is especially useful
for secure environments where only the port 443 is open for HTTPS connectivity and port 80
is closed, disabling HTTP.
-
Log in to BlueCat Gateway.

If you want the SSL certificate you upload in Step 5 to be validated, select
the Validate SSL Certificate check box.

Once the SSL certificate is uploaded, it will be validated

least one of those BAMs.

Uploading a new SSL certificate or
replacing an existing updated SSL certificate will log out all active
sessions (HTTPS, HTTP, and UI) for all users. If you proceed and click
SAVE, all active user sessions will be forcibly
logged out.
