I realize that Ubiquiti may be in the same “too ashamed to talk publicly about 
it” bucket as Mikrotik, so feel free to email me off list instead of replying 
publicly - is anyone else here running non-default x.509 certs for the web GUI 
on the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter? [*]

I thought I had a fairly bulletproof recipe, sticky across more than a year of 
reboots, but on a recent power outage somehow things reverted to the factory 
self-signed cert.  ER4 still on EdgeOS 1.x.

Any thoughts from people who are also doing this would be appreciated.

[*] - ER4 is on a residential connection, housekeeping raspi keeps DNS updated 
with current external IP address.  If we use ping to monitor in Nagios, in the 
event of a power event when someone else gets our old address we get a false 
service-ok alert, so instead we allow only the monitoring system to touch the 
otherwise-unused web gui on the external interface, and look for the CN to be 
what we’re expecting.  Works great, so long as the cert I put there stays...
