Overview

Authentication

Authentication verifies the identity of a user or a network device (such as an

APC Network Management Card in the Battery Management System

master controller). Passwords typically identify computer users. However,

for transactions or communications requiring more stringent security

methods on the Internet, the Battery Management System supports more

secure methods of authentication.

• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), used for secure Web access, uses digital

certificates for authentication. A digital CA root certificate is issued by a

Certificate Authority (CA) as part of a public key infrastructure, and its

digital signature must match the digital signature on a server certificate

on the Management Card.

• Secure SHell (SSH), used for remote terminal access to the Battery

Management System’s control console, uses a public host key for

authentication rather than a digital certificate.

How certificates are used. Most Web browsers, including all browsers

supported by the Battery Management System, contain a set of CA root

certificates from all of the commercial Certificate Authorities.
