Bypass browser TLS warning

A Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate is required to establish a link between the Admin Console (Replicated) and your browser.

When configuring the KOTS Admin Console for the first time, you see a TLS warning with an option to bypass it with a self-signed certificate. If you have a trusted certificate, you can configure the certificate at any time. If you continue with the self-signed certificate, you see a warning every time you access the Admin Console.

You can upload a TLS certificate and provide a private key if you have one. Private keys can't be password-protected. The key and primary certificate must be in PEM format, that's a base64 encoded x509 certificate.

To bypass browser TLS warning:

  1. Open the KOTS Admin Console, then select Continue to setup.
