The Certificates screen includes the ACME DNS-Authenticators widget that displays a list of configured authenticators. The Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) DNS-Authenticators screen allows users to automate certificate issuing and renewal. The user must verify ownership of the domain before TrueNAS allows certificate automation.

ACME DNS is an advanced feature intended for network administrators or AWS professionals. Misconfiguring ACME DNS can prevent you from accessing TrueNAS.
