OCSP Rules Fields
Certificate Map—Displays the name of the certificate map to match to this OCSP rule. Certificate
maps match user permissions to specific fields in a certificate. You must configure the certificate
map before you configure OCSP rules.
Certificate—Displays the name of the CA the security appliance uses to validate responder
certificates.
Index—Displays the priority number for the rule. The security appliance examines OCSP rules in
priority order, and applies the first one that matches.
URL—Specifies the URL for the OCSP server for this certificate.
Add—Click to add a new OCSP rule.
Edit—Click to edit an existing OCSP rule.
Delete—Click to delete an OCSP rule.
Advanced Configuration Options
The Advanced tab lets you specify CRL and OCSP options. When a certificate is issued, it is valid for
a fixed period of time. Sometimes a CA revokes a certificate before this time period expires; for example,
due to security concerns or a change of name or association. CAs periodically issue a signed list of
revoked certificates. Enabling revocation checking forces the security appliance to check that the CA has
not revoked the certificate being verified.
