When HTTPS is enabled for the first time on a system, a self-signed certificate is automatically installed. In order to connect, remote clients must be configured to accept the self-signed certificate without verifying it ("insecure" mode).

For secure-mode connections, a -signed certificate is required. The use of a -signed certificate is strongly recommended.

You can update the certificate used by at any time after installation.
