You can configure a pass phrase in a file, or you can set it when you start the Enterprise Server instance. To set a pass phrase when you start the instance: 
	 
 
	  
		- Start your enterprise server from the home page of ES Admin and wait for it to start. 
		
 
 
		- Go to the Listeners page and find your HTTPS listener. The status column should indicate "Start pending" and the Status Log column should show "Waiting for keyfile passphrase". 
		
 
 
		- Click 
		  Authorize in the Status column of the HTTPS listener. 
		
 
 
		- Enter your pass phrases and click 
		  Set passphrases. 
		
 
 
		- Confirm that the status of the HTTPS listener is now "Started", by looking at the main Listeners page (and clicking 
		  Refresh if necessary). 
		
 
 
	 
 
	 Note: If you have problems starting or running an SSL-enabled listener, it can be useful to look at the MFCS log. Click
