Policy Manager - My Certificates

If you are creating VPNs that use certificates for authentication and security, use the Policy Manager for My Certificates to install signed certificates into specific VSU.

After one or more certificates have been installed, see IKE Certificate Usage on page 240 about configuring a target for a signed certificate, and Issuer certificates on page 238 about installing issuer certificates on a target.

About VSU certificates

VSUs use public-keycertificates based on CCITT Recommendation X.509. Within the framework of the recommendation, each certificate includes a Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman (RSA) Public-Key Cryptography Standard (PKCS) Number 10 for authentication.

A VSU can store up to nine certificates. One is a default certificate which is only used for the SSL connection between the VSU and the VPNmanager Console. The remaining eight certificates are My Certificates and are statically stored in the flash memory of the VSU. The default certificate is issued by Avaya Inc..

Note:

The default certificate has a six year period of validity, which starts at the factory when it’s put into the VSU. Reprogramming the flash is the only way to change the default certificate.
