Attention!

Before working with the manual, you must install the Bash command line interpreter—some actions of the manual can only be performed with it.

In AxxonData, you can apply a custom certificate and a custom domain name.

To generate and apply a custom certificate and a custom domain name, do the following:

  1. Contact the AxxonSoft technical support to get the gen-srt.ch generation script and the v3.ext file.

  2. Place the v3.ext file and the gen-srt.ch generation script in the same folder.

  3. Open the gen-srt.ch generation script in a text editor.

  4. In line 4 in the DOMAIN parameter, change the default domain name to a custom domain name. For example, DOMAIN=customdomain.test.

  5. Save the changes.
  6. Start the generation of the gen-srt.ch script using the command:
    ./gen-crt.sh

    As a result, you get two files: rootCA.pem and <Domain name>.pem.

  7. Install AxxonData (see Installation of AxxonData).
  8. Rename the <Domain name>.pem file to vmscloud.local.pem.

  9. Replace the vmscloud.local.pem file in the C:\Program Files\AxxonSoft\AxxonData\nginx folder.

  10. Replace the vmscloud.local.pem and rootCA.pem files with files with the same names located in the C:\Program Files/AxxonSoft/AxxonData folder.

  11. Open the AxxonData.env file located in the C:\Program Files/AxxonSoft/AxxonData folder in a text editor.

  12. Press Ctrl+H and replace vmscloud.local with <Domain name>.
  13. Save the changes.

  14. Open the AxxonData.env file located in the C:\Program Files/AxxonSoft/AxxonData folder in a text editor.

  15. Press Ctrl+H and replace vmscloud.local with <Domain name>.
  16. Save the changes.
  17. Install the certificate from the rootCA.pem file (see Local AxxonData Reports subsystem in Windows OS).

  18. Open the hosts file (C:Windows/System32/drivers\etc\) in a text editor and add the following line to it:

    127.0.0.1 <Domain name>
  19. Restart the computer.

  20. Open a browser and check the secure connection by typing https://<Domain name> in the search bar. As a result, the AxxonData login window opens in a browser using a custom domain name.

Generation of a custom certificate and a custom domain name is complete.
