Using Function Blocks with TLS-Certificate
Handling TLS-Certification
Use the standard configuration of the TLS settings (only instance the structure).
With these settings the server does not require a certificate from the client, but the client would require a certificate from the server. Also, the handling or creation of the certificates are managed by the Schneider Electric software.
General Behavior of the Function Block Using TLS
When using the client with TLS-Encryption, you have to save the certificate manually to the trusted certificates:
At the first connection, the client function block will provide an exception:
This exception displays that the certificate is not being trusted. To set the certificate to trusted, you have to verify and move (drag & drop) the certificate from Quarantined Certificates to Trusted certificates in the security screen.
For further information, refer to Handling the TLS-Certification or in the Security Screen ( ) in the Online Help.
After these settings, you must restart the function block to start a new communication. The connection must be established without an exception.
