Configure SSL/HTTPS for GS724TPV2 and GS752TPv3

[SS-SysAdm]

Hi All, I am looking to enable HTTPS for all my Netgear Switches (GS724TPV2 and GS752TPV3). But I cannot import the self-signed certificate that I have already got available. I feel like I'm missing a vital step, and was wondering if someone is able to help me on this? Looking forward to hearing some advice. Cheers!

Have you verified that the certificate matches the required key length and signature algorithm supported by the Netgear switches?

Hi @RylieColette, we use a length of 2048, which I believe is good for Netgear devices.

Hi @SS-SysAdm,

Welcome to the community!

To import self-signed certificates for your NETGEAR switches GS724TPV2 and GS752TPV3, follow these steps:

For GS752TPV3:

Log in to the switch: Open a web browser and enter the IP address of your GS752TPV3 switch.

Navigate to the certificate settings: Go to LAN Setup > Certificates1.

Import the certificate: Select the Import option and upload your self-signed certificate file1.

Enter the public and private keys: If required, paste the public and private key information from your certificate file1.

Save the changes: Make sure to save and apply the changes.

For GS724TPV2:

Log in to the switch: Open a web browser and enter the IP address of your GS724TPV2 switch.

Navigate to the certificate settings: Go to LAN Setup > Certificates.

Import the certificate: Select the Import option and upload your self-signed certificate file.

Enter the public and private keys: If required, paste the public and private key information from your certificate file.

Save the changes: Make sure to save and apply the changes.

Feel free to ask if you encounter any issues or need further assistance!

Kind regards,

So we now have the certificates installed on the GS724TPV3. This is how we did it.

Then as you can see we enable https 

However the same does NOT work for the GS724TPV2 

its just does NOT take the public certificate?

X.509 Public Certificate PEM file update through HTTP did not complete.

Yet does accept the private key.

Does anyone know what the difference between GS724TPV2 and GS724TPV3 when it comes to the public certificate. I am hitting my head against a brick wall now. It would be nice if the were some type of logging that I could to check to see what it is failing. Is that possible?
