title: Digital certificates for embedded systems
body: <p>I an responsible for deploying a large amount of embedded devices and want to add https.</p>
  
  <p>I've done a bit of googling and am a little confused as to where exactly my plan falls through.</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Get a certificate signed by a reputable CA</li>
  <li>Use the corresponding private key to sign new certs for each device</li>
  <li>User connects to device (e.g.192.168.1.40) and receives 2 certificates</li>
  <li>User's browser verifies that the device's cert. was issued by my company</li>
  <li>User's browser verifies that my companies cert. was issued by reputable CA</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Can someone please poke a few holes in that??</p>
