     Note

     SHA-1 fingerprint is computed from the certificate content and is used for validating certificate's authenticity. Even a minor change in the certificate will result in a different SHA-1 Fingerprint and points to a tampered certificate. The monitor will be shown in Trouble state when an SHA-1 Fingerprint check fails.
