What version of the vCenter Appliance do you have?
Can you access the vCenter management console?

ESXi host client or vCenter don't prohibits login due to untrusted certs.

CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED is a client error, try to clear the browser cache or run incognito mode.

Are you able to use administrator@vsphere.local?
