Certificate validations for System Manager connection

Last Updated : Nov 17, 2017 |
Prolog information
For the TLS connection between Avaya Breeze® platform and System Manager, the identity certificate is validated using standard path validation which complies with the RFC5280 section “Certificate Path Validation”. In addition, hostname validation is performed. The System Manager identity certificate should have a Subject Alternate Name extension with two DNS name entries:
  1. The actual System Manager hostname (e.g. systemmanager-1.example.com)
  2. The second DNS entry should contain "active.smgr.com" value. This last one is used as Data Replication (DRS) uses that hostname for certificate validation.
