configurations.
With the exception of the version, all the DCP configurations described in the preceding table
apply to SCEP-requested device certificates. The PKCS#12 column identifies the limited set
of parameter that apply to a DCP configured for PKCS#12. Many of the parameters apply only
to the configuration of a certificate request, which is why the parameters apply only to
SCEP.
The following describes the key profile attributes:
• Index
The Index is the index of the device certificate profile. For each type of IP Deskphone,
there is a fixed number of profiles available in the range of 1 to MAX_PROFILES. The
index also identifies a priority. When a device certificate is requested for a specific
purpose, such as EAP-TLS, the IP Deskphone searches through the device certificates
to find the first one that is defined, active and can be used for the requested purpose.
• Source
The Source identifies if the IP Deskphone requests the device certificate using SCEP or
if the device certificate is downloaded using PKCS#12. If PKCS#12 is specified, direct
action is not taken. This allows a downloaded device certificate to be installed in this
profile.
• Active
If the Active attribute is not active, the IP Deskphone assumes that there is no device
certificate associated with the profile and takes no action to request one (even if SCEP
is specified as the source).
• CAServerName
CAServerName is the name of a CA server that is sent in the initial SCEP request to get
the CA root certificate. Although some SCEP servers ignore the CAServerName, the
CAServerName is important for EJBCA, and to differentiate between multiple CAs on a
single server.
Important:
CAServerName
must not be confused with the URL specified for the CA server which
is used to make the SCEP connection.
• AutoCN
The AutoCN parameter indicates if the CN in an SCEP certificate request should be
automatically populated based on the Hostname and Domain Name configuration
