If you have an existing certificate issued by a commercial or internal certificate authority (CA), you can configure ArcGIS Monitor to use it. To import the certificate into Monitor, the full certificate chain (root certificate, public key, private key, and any necessary intermediate certificates) must be stored in the PKCS#12 format, which is represented by a file with either the .p12 or .pfx file extension. To configure Monitor with an existing CA-signed certificate, complete the following steps:
- Access ArcGIS Monitor if necessary.
The Home page appears.
- Click Administration.
The Administration page appears.
- In the HTTP communication settings section, click Edit.
The HTTP communication settings dialog box appears.
- Click Choose file under SSL certificate and choose the .p12 or .pfx file that contains the certificate.
- If the SSL certificate requires a passphrase, provide it in the SSL passphrase text box.
- Click Save.
The CA-signed certificate settings are saved and a confirmation message appears.
- Click Restart Server to restart Monitor and apply the changes.
Once Monitor restarts, the CA-signed certificate that you specified is used by Monitor Server for HTTPS requests.
Access Monitor Server
Monitor Server listens on port 30443 for requests when HTTPS is enabled. Use the following URL syntax to securely access Monitor Server:
https://monitorserver.domain.com:30443/arcgis/monitor
Note:
If you rename the Monitor Server machine, you can continue to access it using HTTPS; however, the host name will no longer match the original certificate. You must generate a new certificate and configure Monitor Server to use it.
