Since currently it works fine with untrusted certs, but that may change
anytime.

For WebAuthn to work, you need to have two things:
* a trusted HTTPS certificate (for example, by using `Let's Encrypt
- <https://pbs.proxmox.com/wiki/index.php/HTTPS_Certificate_Configuration>`_)
+ <https://pbs.proxmox.com/wiki/index.php/HTTPS_Certificate_Configuration>`_).
+ While it probably works with an untrusted certificate, some browsers may warn
+ or refuse WebAuthn operations if it is not trusted.
* setup the WebAuthn configuration (see *Configuration -> Authentication* in the
Proxmox Backup Server web-interface). This can be auto-filled in most setups.
