User Guidelines
Use this command to export a certificate request to a Certification Authority.
The certificate request is generated in Base64-encoded X.509 format.
Before generating a certificate request, you must first generate a self-signed
certificate using the crypto certificate generate command in Global
Configuration mode in order to generate the keys. Make sure to re-enter the
identical values in the certificate request fields.
After receiving the certificate from the Certification Authority, use the crypto
certificate import command in Global Configuration mode to import the
certificate into the switch. This certificate replaces the self-signed certificate.
