OCSP Settings

Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) provides a way for devices that use certificates to verify that a received certificate is currently valid. OCSP is an alternative to using Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs). If your organization uses certificates to authenticate management communications in an EncrypTight deployment, you can use OCSP to check the validity of the certificates you install.

Certificate Policy Extensions

Certificate policy extensions indicate the purposes for which a certificate was issued, for example signing e-mail or encryption. If your organization uses certificates and makes use of the certificate policy extension, you can enable support for the extensions on the ETEP and enter the allowable OIDs.
