Abstract

In an approach to attesting control over network devices, responsive to receiving a first signal from a client, wherein the first signal initiates a network connection between the client and a server, a first certificate is sent to the client that contains a common name that is an internet protocol (IP) address. A second certificate is sent to the client that contains a common name that is a uniform resource locator (URL) of the server. Responsive to receiving a second signal from the client that the first certificate and the second certificate are trusted, the client is connected with the server.
