To validate the MDM Gateway Server certificate

  1. On MDM Gateway Server, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand Web Sites, right-click Gateway Management Web site, and then select Properties.

  2. In the Gateway Management Web site Properties dialog box, choose the Directory Security tab, and then select View Certificate.

  3. Choose the General tab. Make sure that the dates are valid and that you can view the You have a private key that corresponds to this certificate at the bottom of the dialog box.

    Important

    If you are using multiple certification authorities, you must validate that the whole certificate chain is valid. To do this, choose the Certification Path tab. Under Certificate status, verify that each certificate in the chain indicates This certificate is OK status.

  4. Choose OK to close the dialog box.
