9.Once the certificate is properly enrolled, issue the show ca certificates command to display the end-entity and other certificates. The first certificate shown, identified as being in ENTITY-ACTIVE state, is the end-entitycertificate. Compare the Subject ID to the serial number earlier displayed by the enrollment script to verify its authenticity.
