This is the certificate’s message digest that the NWA3000-N series AP

with the certification authority (over the phone for example) that this

 

is actually their certificate.

friends or colleagues or you can copy and paste the certificate into a

 

text editor and save the file on a management computer for later

 

distribution (via floppy disk for example).
