 +====Custom SSL Certificates====
  
 +Your ARDI license includes an SSL certificate that is signed by Optrix, the authors of the ARDI system.
 +
 +This is a //self-signed// certificate to help provide an additional layer of security and allow users to access web technologies (such as video, audio and position capture) that are only available on secure web-pages.
 +
 +However, this certificate will give your clients warnings unless they [[https://ardi.com.au/certificates/|install the Optrix certificate chain]] on their devices.
 +
 +You can instead provide your **own** SSL certificate to your ARDI server at any time.
 +
 +===Files and Formats===
 +
 +Ensure you have the following files...
 +
 +  * The root/intermediate certificate chain,
 +  * The server certificate,
 +  * The ARDI servers private key
 +
 +The all files but the private key should be in **.pem** format. 
 +
 +===Installing Your Certificate(s)===
 +
 +Simply copy these files into the **/ssl** folder of your ARDI installation.
 +
 +^File Name^Contains^
 +|chain.pem|The SSL certificate chain in PEM format|
 +|server.pem|The servers public key in PEM format|
 +|server.key|The servers private key|
 +
 +===Restart the Service===
 +
 +Once this step is complete, restart the **Apache2** service to use your updated SSL certificates.
