Certificates
NOTE: For more information about using certificates in Linux, go to http://www.openssl.org/docs/
apps/x509.html.
Certificate Manager
To open the Certificate Manager:
▲
Select Advanced > Certificates in the Control Panel.
Use the Certificate Manager to manually install a certificate from a certificate authority (CA). This
action copies the certificate to the user’s local certificate store (/usr/local/share/ca-certificates) and
configures OpenSSL to use the certificate for connection verification.
If desired, use the Profile Editor to attach the certificate to a profile, as described in
Adding certificates
to a client profile on page 59.
NOTE: Generally, a self-signed certificate will work as long as it is valid according to specification
and can be verified by OpenSSL.
SCEP Manager
To open the SCEP Manager:
▲
Select Advanced > SCEP Manager in the Control Panel.
Use the SCEP Manager when you need to enroll or renew client-side certificates from a CA.
During an enrollment or renewal, the SCEP Manager generates the client’s private key and certificate
request, and then it sends the request to the CA on the SCEP server. When the CA issues the
certificate, the certificate is returned and placed in the client’s certificate store. OpenSSL uses the
certificate for connection verification.
NOTE: Before enrollment, make sure that the SCEP server is configured properly.
Use the Identifying tab of the SCEP Manager to enter information about the user, if desired.
