To start the remote proxy Windows service, you must configure a valid certificate for the proxy.

Procedure

  1. On the server that hosts remote parser, open Windows Services.
  2. If already started, stop the Genetec Key Systems Proxy service.
  3. In Windows, open the Genetec Key Systems Proxy installation folder.
  4. Open the appsettings.json file.
  5. Find the kestrel section. By default, it is displayed as follows:
    Code
    "Kestrel": {
                    "Endpoints": {
                      "Https": {
                        "Url": "https://+:8901"
                        "Certificate": {
                          "Store": "My"
                          "Location": "LocalMachine",
                          "Subject": "localhost"  
  6. Do one of the following:
    • To use a certificate already in the Certificate Store, change the Store, Location, and Subject properties to match the desired certificate store path.

    • To use a certificate found on the file system, install it in the Certificate Store, then change the Store, Location, and Subject properties to match the desired certificate store path.

      NOTE: Ensure the issuer of the certificate is trusted or the proxy service cannot start.
  7. Save and close the file.
  8. In Windows Services, start the Genetec Key Systems Proxy service.
