	the certificate itself). If the certificate is a self-signed certificate, the certificate itself

	that a Certification Authority signed the certificate. “Self-signed” means that the
	certificate’s owner signed the certificate (not a certification authority). “X.509”
	means that this certificate was created and signed according to the ITU-T X.509
	recommendation that defines the formats for public-key certificates.
Version	This field displays the X.509 version number.
Serial Number	This field displays the certificate’s identification number given by the certification
	authority or generated by the ZyWALL.

Issuer	This field displays identifying information about the certificate’s issuing certification
	authority, such as Common Name, Organizational Unit, Organization and Country.
