Setting the certificate alias

This procedure creates a provisioning job to set the certificate alias for the certificate to be used for Platform, Fox, and Web services on each remote device in the job. Successfully running this step enables secure connections from the Supervisor to the remote device without having to enable certificate exemptions for the device’s Platform and Fox services.

The BatchJobService is available under Services. The ProvisioningNwExt component is available under the NiagaraNetwork. The Niagara Network Job Builder (one-time) or Niagara Network Prototype View (reoccurring job) is open.
