Create a Server Certificate and Signing Request

Summary

Use this procedure if your company or agency has its own Certificate Authority or if you plan to use a commercial Certificate Authority to sign your server certificates.

Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR).The CSR contains all the information for a server certificate except the digital signature. This process creates two output files:

The file with the .p15 extension contains the Network Management Card’s private key.

The file with the .csr extension contains the certificate signing request, which you send to an external Certificate Authority.

When you receive the signed certificate from the Certificate Authority, import that certificate. Importing the certificate combines the .p15 file containing the private key and the file containing the signed certificate from the external Certificate Authority. The output file is a new encrypted server certificate file with a .p15 extension.

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.
