Parameter
ca: indicates that the entity registers by CA for certificate request.
ra: indicates that the entity registers by RA for certificate request.
Description
Use the certificate request from command to choose between CA and RA to register
for certificate request.
Use the undo certificate request from command to undo the selected registration

RA offers an extension to the CA certificate issue management. It takes charge of the
input and verification of the applicant information as well as the certificate issuing. But it
supports no signature function. Within some minor PKI systems, there is no RA and its
functions are implemented through CA.
