Working with Certificate Requests

The workflow for requesting and installing an identity certificate on an EncrypTight appliance is as follows:

1Generate a certificate signing request.

2Send the request to a CA. If the request is approved, the CA returns a signed certificate.

3Install the signed certificate on the appliance.

Only one certificate request is allowed on the appliance. Prior to creating a new certificate request you must cancel the existing one.

See the following topics to learn about certificate request tasks:
