Configuring the Controller as an OCSP Responder
When configured as an OCSP responder, the controller provides revocation status information to ArubaOS
applications that use CRLs.
In the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Management > Certificates > Upload page.
2. Enter a name in the Certificate Name field. This name identifies the OCSP signer certificate you are
uploading.
3. Enter the certificate file name in the Certificate Filename field. Use Browse to enter the full pathname.
4. Select the certificate format from the Certificate Format drop-down menu.
5. Select OCSP signer cert from the Certificate Type drop-down menu. Once this certificate is uploaded, it
is maintained in the certificate store for OCSP signer certificates. These certificates are used for signature
verification.
The OCSP signer cert signs OCSP responses for this revocation check point. The OCSP signer cert can be the
same trusted CA as the check point, a designated OCSP signer certificate issued by the same CA as the check
point or some other local trusted authority.
If you do not specify an OCSP signer cert, OCSP responses are signed using the global OCSP signer
certificate. If that is not present, than an error message is sent out to clients.
The OCSP signer certificate takes precedence over the global OCSP signer certificate as it is check point specific.
6. Click Upload. The certificate appears in the Certificate Lists pane. Select OCSP signer cert from the Group
drop-down list if you want to display only those certificates which are OCSP signer certificates.
7. For detailed information about an uploaded certificate, click View next to the certificate.
8. Select the Revocation Checkpoint tab.
9. Select Enable next to Enable OCSP Responder.
Enable OCSP Responder is a global knob that turns the OCSP responder service on or off on the controller.
The default is disabled (off). Enabling this option automatically adds the OCSP responder port (TCP 8084) to
the permit list in the CP firewall so this can be accessed from outside the controller.
10.Select the OCSP signer cert from the OCSP Certificates drop-down menu to be used to sign OCSP
responses for this revocation check point.
