Obtaining and using a new signed certificate
1. Generate and transfer an SSL certificate signing request (CSR) to a remote FTP server:
>save ssl-csr address=ftp://user:password@192.168.10.12/new-ssl.csr
CN=server.domain.com O=Hewlett-Packard C=US ST=CA L=Cupertino
email=[e-mail]
If the existing key is 1024 bits, a warning appears stating that a new key and certificate must be
generated and the web server must be restarted. After you confirm this operation, a new key and
certificate are generated and the web server restarts. The command pauses for 30 seconds to allow the
web server to restart.
2. Send the CSR text to the certificate authority (CA). The CA returns a signed certificate.
3. Upload the signed certificate:
>load ssl-certificate
Address=ftp://user:password@192.168.10.12/new-ssl.crt
The file is transferred and the web server restarts.
