Template:TLS&DTLS encryption & certificate generation

Requirements to perform the encryption and generation of the certificate:

Server with implemented TLS/DTLS functionality
OPENSSL (or any other) software to generate certificate key
Firmware FMB.Ver.03.27.xx

Download and install OPEN VPN software:

Download OpenSSL from https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries

Figure 1 OPEN VPN installing process

Open command window (cmd.exe) as administrator:

After command window is running (as administrator), open easy-rsa directory over CMD:

Example: "cd C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\easy-rsa"

set KEY_CN=100.10.11.222
set KEY_NAME=TeltonikaSUPPORT
set KEY_OU=FMB

Figure 5 vars, clean-all, build-ca commands inputs and responses

After commands entered click enter to check all inserted parameters, when directory command appears check generated key in --> C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\easy-rsa\keys

IMG

Figure 6 printed parameters which will be used in encryption certificate

Generated key change

Copy all generated files from C:\Program Files\OpenVPN\easy-rsa\keys into new folder and change ca.crt file name and extension into root.pem

IMG

Figure 7 File name and extension change

Upload root certificate to device

NOTE! Certificate extension must be named "root.pem"

IMG

Figure 8 File root.pem upload

Figure 9 Uploaded root file

Note: to upload new root.pem file current file must be deleted from configuration before.

Configure server and enable encryption mode
