NSX Manager SSL Certification NSX Manager requires a signed certificate to authenticate the identity of the NSX Manager web service and encrypt information sent to the NSX Manager web server.

As a security best practice, you should use the generate certificate option to generate a private key and public key, where the private key is saved to the NSX Manager.
