When you set up an Edge to be managed by a SmartCenter, there are a number of things you need to do:

Set up an Edge gateway on the SmartCenter. Note the object name. Generate the key from the SmartCenter object page and note it as well.

On the Edge, Connect to a Service Center, in this case it's really the external IP of your SmartCenter. This is where you will use the SmartCenter object name and key. They're effectively a user name and password to validate the initial communications.

If you do not use implied rules, there are a couple of ports in the 9200 range that need to be opened between the Edge and the SmartCenter.

When the Edge connects to the SmartCenter, it will pull its digital certificate and install it automatically.
