You also have the option to install certificates from a Device Info page. On Device Info pages, have the added benefit of managing certificates, with options to enable/disable system root certificates and remove user installed certificates.

Please note, this feature is currently supported only for IFP50-5 devices with firmware version 20230509 or later.
