How to replace web client certificate on vCenter 6.0 with trusted

Hi,

Wanting to know how I use a trusted certificate so we no longer receive the certificate warning when going to the vSphere Web client page. have looked around but there doesn't seem to be a straight forward answer. My knowledge around certs aren't great.

Thanks

You have two options..

1. Download trusted root of vmca using the below kb to avoid certificate warning

VMware Knowledge Base

2. Replace machine ssl certificate with CA certificates using certificate manager utility

If your organization  does not require to have a CA CERT AS MANDATORY and you wanted to avoid the browser warning first option is easy go..

If your organization wanted only internal CA or third party CA certs as their security policies then second is go to option..

Thanks.,

MS
