  * **Default certificate will not work in Multi-instance mode, agents will refuse the connection because the certificate is not bound to server IP address**
  * **In this case, you must generate a self signed certificate and bind it to the local IP**
  * Generate certificates will be stored in the keystore
  * Pro.Monitor keystore is located in the ''certificates/.keystore'' file of Pro.Monitor install folder

**NOTE:** After adding a certificate, it is advised to restart Pro.Monitor service.

==== Adding certificates ====

  * There are several reasons why you might need to register certificates for secure connections:
    * Secure LDAP
    * Secure plugin
    * Secure primary server (for agents)
    * Secure SAPControl or portal connection
  * First you need to get the certificate and then to install it.

=== Download certificate ===

  * The most convenient way to get server certificate is to use your web browser.
  * In the URL field, there is usually a lock icon displayed when using HTTPS. Right click on the icon to open a contextual menu and look for certificate details.
  * From there you can export the certificate and save it locally.
  * Use CER Base64 format when available.

  * Copy the server certificate on the client (The server connecting to the secured service)
