Enrollment Status Table

This table tracks the status of active enrollment requests.

The VPN 3002 supports one (installed) identity certificate and one (outstanding) enrollment request. If you currently have an identity certificate on your VPN 3002 and you want to change it, you can request a second certificate, but the VPN 3002 does not install this certificate immediately. The new certificate appears in the Enrollment Status table; you must activate it manually.

The VPN 3002 automatically deletes entries that have the status “Timedout,” “Failed,” “Cancelled,” or “Error” and are older than one week.
