How to spec exception for NAS device that results in "ERR_SSL_SERVER_CERT_BAD_FORMAT" error?
-
I encountered the following blocking problem today on my new Win10Pro laptop when trying to access the https management interface IPaddr on my private LAN's Network Attached Storage (NAS) RAID storage, producing the following error on Vivaldi browser:
This site can’t provide a secure connection
192.168.0.25 doesn't adhere to security standards.
ERR_SSL_SERVER_CERT_BAD_FORMATI have confirmed that Win10 Defender & firewall are set to allow this connection on my local private network only. However, I have combed through the Vivaldi Settings dialog and cannot find a way to list this particular IPaddr/certificate as an exception to blocking. HOW can I do this in Vivaldi?
I have the latest firmware installed on that Netgear ReadyNAS Duo device (4.1.1.6), and since it's an older model Netgear is not planning on providing further updates to change certificate format. I am NOT experiencing this problem on Edge or Firefox browsers.
Vivaldi version 2.3.1440.61 (Stable channel) (32-bit)

ERR_SSL_SERVER_CERT_BAD_FORMAT
that requires you a flag to force it to be ignored. At your own risk to try it.
chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost -
Thx for the reply...but that did not resolve the problem. Still getting same error message in Vivaldi.

Is there a way to ignore this on a local domain? My Unraid server can't use a valid SSL cert because of DNS rebind protection. E.g. https://server.local/

@hammyhavoc Open
vivaldi://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure
, set to Enable , add router URL in text area and restart Vivaldi.PS: Having a hostname for a device with .local at end is a very bad idea!
.local is a reserved top-level-domain (TLD) and is used for Multicast DNS.Please use as TLD some from: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6762#appendix-G
Why not .home or .lan?
