Re-generate private key on ZD - issues?

thbert — Tue, 13 Oct 2020 20:01:51 GMT

I have a ZD 3000 and need to change the current private key length from 1024 (default) to 2048 in order to get a SSL Certificate. Does this affect existing users/WLAN configuration in any way (apart from the required ZD reboot) or is the change completely transparent? I notice there is an option to backup and restore the private key. What, if anything, could go wrong?
thanks

Hi There,

There will be no other service impact, than ZD reboot.

If you want, you can always take a backup of current key and restore, if anything goes wrong (I am sure there will be no issues).

To avoid service impact to the end users, perform the activity during a maintenance window, in non--business hours.
