- You can also verify in the Watch; it may take a couple of minutes to update the changes. You can restart the Workspot Gateway Agent service to replicate it immediately.

**Please Note:** If a customer has a firewall or network appliance between the Clients and the gateways, it is configured for SSL inspection; ensure the certificate is also updated on the network appliance.

> Note: Make sure to delete the certificate and password, in case you saved in the gateway or any other location.
