Importing client certificates for Syslog - References - SIMATIC AX - AX Hardware Engineering documentation - Hardware Engineering,

When using TLSServerAndClientAuthentication as TransportProtocolType, a client certificate has to be imported. A client certificate is used to verify the PLCs identity when it accesses the logging server and to enable endpoint security. To import the certificate, the import-certificate command of the Hardware Compiler can be used with the purpose SysLogClient.

apax hwc import-certificate -i ./my-hw-config.hwl.json -n PLC_1 --purpose SysLogClient --certificate ./my-certificate.p12
