Wasnt aware that traveling in time is new feature in R80.40 😄 Such a great new feature should be written as very first inside Release Notes 😄

This is really cool. I want know on which hard- and software a root CA was running in 1930? Maybe something written on paper.....

Hi Hristo,

I tried to get the same thing in my local env and didn't see it,

Did it happen after a clean installation or upgrade?

Do you remember when did you last update the Trusted CA list?

I really can't say what time it happened. I just accidentally noticed it today when I imported my own certificate. Management server is clean R80.40 install with applied JHFs. SmartConsole is upgraded few times as well. Can't say when was the last Trusted CA list updated but it is up to date. I just tried it from another computer with an older R80.40 SmartConsole and problem appears there as well. Btw, incorrect ValidTo date appears only in table grid. When you open any of these certs date is correct.

Could this be one of the other problems caused by the Epoch date 2038 issue?

Yeah, seems so. Luckily it is only "cosmetic" issue and should be easy to fix.
