# Certificate tab

The Certificate tab is for generating or uploading the Discovery Console for OT certificate.

## Console Certificate

The Console generates its own self-signed certificate bundle when initially deployed. The Certificate tab is for updating, generating, uploading, or downloading a Console Certificate.

On the Certificate tab you can select from the following actions to update a Console Certificate:

-   Generate New Bundle.
-   Upload Bundle \(p12\).
-   Download the Certificate Bundle \(.zip\).
-   Renew Certificates.

After you generate a New Bundle, you can select the link **Download Console Certificate Bundle \(.zip\)**. The bundle contains the Console's Collector Certificate Authority and the RabbitMQ certificate. These certificates establish trust between the Console and Collector and confirms their communications are secure and encrypted.

**Note:** For more information, see [Renew a certificate](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/operational-technology/renew-a-certificate.md). The steps are similar but the Certificate tab only pertains to the Console Certificate.
