Create a Root Certificate & Server Certificates

Summary

Use this procedure if your company or agency does not have its own Certificate Authority and you do not want to use a commercial Certificate Authority to sign your server certificates.

The public RSA key that is part of a certificate generated by the APC Security Wizard is 1024 bits. (The default key generated by the Network Management Card, if you do not use the Wizard, is 768 bits.)

•Create a CA root certificate that will be used to sign all server certificates to be used with Network Management Cards. During this task, two files are created.

–The file with the .p15 extension is an encrypted file which contains the Certificate Authority’s private key and public root certificate. This file signs the server certificates.

–The file with the .crt extension, which contains only the Certificate Authority’s public root certificate. You load this file into each Web browser that will be used to access the Network Management Card so that the browser can validate the server certificate of the Network Management Card.

•Create a server certificate, which is stored in a file with a .p15 extension. During this task, you are prompted for the CA root certificate that signs the server certificate.

•Load the server certificate onto the Network Management Card.

•For each Network Management Card that requires a server certificate, repeat the tasks that create and load the server certificate.
