Smartdashboard error

[SuperD]

Hi guys, can anyone help with the below error im receiving when trying to log into R62 smartdashboard.
It seems to be a certificate error possibly?? Because when i set the date back to last week on my local machine i can connect fine, but if brought up to current date i keep getting the below message. Firewall and module are on the same box.
Can anyone advise what i need to reset here cert wise, and how i go about it. I have tried re-installing GUI on my client with no success. thanks in advance :)

Hi SuperD,

Can you confirm your setup distributed or standalone?

It might be the date and time on the CMA is out can you confirm all times and dates match including the below:

Client GUI
SmartCenter
Firewall module

Hi Daniel, thanks for reply, this is a standalone setup.. i.e. firewall and mgt on same box.
My time and date on gui and also mgt/fw are the same.. iw ill double check this again.. i though there may be some kind of cert issue no?

I believe that certificate expires every five years. Is the system anywhere around that age?

hi ray.. thansk for the reply.. im not quite sure of age.. if this is correct how do i go about resolving this, or renewing cert to connect to dashboard?

I think you can fake it out by setting the calendar back on the SmartCenter. Take it back a couple of months and see what happens.

What version are you using?

im running R60.. is there not a more permenant fix.. i was hoping i could just renew certs or something.. thanks for your reply

I haven't had to do it in NGX. I know there is a "renew" button on the firewall objects, but I don't know about the SmartCenter object.

In R55 all you had to do was have the SmartCenter date set to something before the expiration date and do a

cpstop;cpstart

and it would renew on the services start. Or reboot the SmartCenter.

Have you tried either of those?
