Table 128 Export Certificate fields

Field	Description
Protocol	The file import protocol. The options are TFTP, FTP,
	SCP, SFTP. The default is FTP.
Host	The host name or IP address of the file exchange
	server.
Format	The key and certificate format in which you want to
	export the key and certificate. Valid options are:
	•	PEM
	•	DER
	•	NET
	• PKCS12 (also known as PFX)
	The PEM and PKCS12 formats always combine the
	private key and certificate in the same file.
	Nortel recommends using the PKCS12 format. Most
	web browsers accept importing a combined key and
	certificate file in the PKCS12 format.
	The formats have different capabilities regarding
	private key encryption and the ability to save the key
	and certificate in separate files. For more information
	about the formats, see “Key and certificate formats” on
	page 571.
Certificate File	The name of the certificate file on the file exchange
	server.
Key File	The name of the key file on the file exchange server.
	If you are using a format that saves the private key and
	certificate in the same file, this field is not needed.
Username	For FTP, SCP, and SFTP, the user name to access the
	file exchange server.
	For anonymous mode, the username is anonymous.
Password	For FTP, SCP, and SFTP, the password to access the
	file exchange server.
	For anonymous mode, the Nortel SNAS 4050 uses the
	following string as the password (for logging purposes):
	admin@<hostname>.isd.
