Space in Use
This bar displays the percentage of the ZyXEL Device’s PKI storage
space that is currently in use. The bar turns from green to red when the
maximum is being approached. When the bar is red, you should
consider deleting expired or unnecessary certificates before adding
more certificates.
Replace This button displays when the ZyXEL Device has the factory default certificate.
The factory default certificate is common to all devices of this model. ZyXEL
recommends that you use this button to replace the factory default certificate with
one that uses your ZyXEL Device's MAC address.

listed in alphabetical order.

recommended that you give each certificate a unique name.

issues a certificate. Use the My Certificate Import screen to import
the certificate and replace the request.

Device uses to sign imported trusted remote host certificates.
