For accessing the device WebaUI using HTTPS it requires a certificate, else it will show the below error:

In this example, we will be able to access the device webpage using HTTPs, with a free certificate from a free CA.

Certificate creation and trust:

  1. 1 You must have a DNS record linked to the IP of the router; in my case, I’m using a Windows server to act as a DNS server.
 As shown, I choose a hostname rut955.teltonika.uae and it's linked with 172.16.16.1 the LAN IP of the router.
 This hostname will be used for creating the certificate later.
  1. 2 Go to: GetAcert website.
  2. 3 Fill in the information regarding your requirements:

Copy the text to a new Notepad file, and rename it to name.crt in my case I used a simple name cer.crt
