through the network as described in Cisco SWAN Wired Connections. When an Cisco 1000

Adding CA Certificates to a Cisco Wireless LAN ControllerAdding CA Certificates to a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller
Certification Authority public-key certificates are used to authenticate the Web server and encrypt data
transmissions between Web server and browser. The CA certificates are issued by a trusted Certifica-
tion Authority, or CA.
Note: You can obtain a CA Certificate from three sources: Factory-supplied, Oper-
ator-generated, and Purchased from a trusted CA. This procedure only applies to
adding an Operator-generated or Purchased ID Certificate, as the Factory-supplied
Certificate is already stored in the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller NVRAM. You do not
need to complete this procedure if you choose to use the Factory-supplied CA
Certificate.
