Although you can distribute one PKCS #12 file to many WX switches, as a

 

 

best practice, you should install a unique certificate and key pair per WX.

3In the Managed Devices list, select the WX switches to which you want to distribute the certificate.

To select more than one WX, click Shift while clicking to select contiguous items, or click Ctrl while clicking to select noncontiguous items.

4In the Task List panel, select Distribute Certificates.

5Click Select PKCS12 File.

6Navigate to the PKCS #12 file and click Select PKCS12 File.

7In the PKCS12 Password box, type the one-time password used to authenticate the PKCS12 file. The following characters cannot be used as part of the one-time password of a PKCS #12 file: quotation marks (“ ”), question mark (?), ampersand (&).

This password must match the password used when the file was generated.

8In the Certificate Type list, select one of the following:

„EAP — To install an 802.1X/EAP certificate

„Web — To install a WebAAA certificate

„Admin — To install an administrative certificate

9Click Start Download. Download progress appears in the Status column.

When the download process is complete, you see a message indicating that the certificate was installed.
