Importing Certificates
Use the WebUI or the CLI to import certificates into the controller.
You can import the following types of certificates into the controller:
Server certificate signed by a trusted CA. This includes a public and private key pair.
CA certificate used to validate other server or client certificates. This includes only the public key for the
certificate.
Client certificate and client’s public key. (The public key is used for applications such as SSH which does not
support X509 certificates and requires the public key to verify an allowed certificate.)
Certificates can be in the following formats:
X509 PEM unencrypted
X509 PEM encrypted with a key
DER
PKCS7 encrypted
PKCS12 encrypted
In the WebUI
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Management > Certificates > Upload page.
2. For Certificate Name, enter a user-defined name.
3. For Certificate Filename, click Browse to navigate to the appropriate file on your computer.
4. If the certificate is encrypted, enter the passphrase.
5. Select the Certificate Format from the drop-down menu.
6. Select the Certificate Type from the drop-down menu.
7. Click Upload to install the certificate in the controller.
In the CLI
Use the following command to import CSR certificates:
crypto pki-import {der|pem|pfx|pkcs12|pkcs7} {PublicCert|ServerCert|TrustedCA} <name>
The following example imports a server certificate named cert_20 in DER format:
crypto pki-import der ServerCert cert_20
Viewing Certificate Information
In the WebUI, the Certificate Lists section of the page lists the certificates that are currently installed in the
controller. Click View to display the contents of a certificate.
