ITO - SSL Certificate

[Anonymous user]

Hello DCIM support team,

Does the ITO support SSL certificates? How can I do to upload or configure the SSL certificate in the ITO Server?

The IT security department request that all servers in the data center must to have SSL certificates and the ITO does not have any. 

Does the SSL certificate upload directly in the ITO server or it should to upload in the Windows Server?

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Hello Luis

The ITO software was not configured to allow customers to upload their own SSL certificates to the application. The certificate handling in ITO is built into the app and was not designed to be customized.

However, access to the actual ITO server can be quite limited as only the DCO/ITA server actually needs access to its web server which is exposed on port 8090 (by default). The discovery and polling connections it makes to servers are initiated outbound from the ITO server. The only inbound connections "should" be from the DCO/ITA server.

So I have seen customers isolate access to the web service via windows firewall to mitigate SSL certificate concerns.
