Solved: Unable to upload SSL

tekbird · ‎02-03-2023

I have a "UCS C240 M5S" server to which I a want to use my SS certificate for CIMC. But when I upload a crt file, it waits for some time and shows a message that the connection has been lost. I tried other formats which is rejected by the server. Could someone help me with right steps for uploading custom SSL certificate? I obtained my certificate from CA and it is a wildcard one.

Wildcard certs weren't supported for a long time.

There was a pending enhancement asking for that (https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCvh20443).
I am not sure it is actually implemented in the 4.12a version that bug lists, but definately would not expect wildcard certs to work on versions prior to 4.12a.

- Try to upload the certificate in PEM format ,

Madam, it all depends , in Riemann geometries the earth can be perfectly flat! The nun thanked him , he tripped and fell forward : the poor animal had forgotten that he might be living in a Riemann geometry too!

Hi, I did that and only then it does not say failed, but it throws a popup that says connection lost and reloading still shows up built-in certificate.
