Avaya 3.7 Manuel D’Utilisation

Explanation for 

1. A Certificate Request from VSU

A

 is sent to a PKI System to be signed.

2. The PKI uses the Certificate Request to create a Signed Certificate specifically for VSU

A

. 

The Signed Certificate is then stored on VSU

A

.

3. Every target of VSU

A

 must have VSU

A

’s Signed Certificate.

Note:

The target uses an Issuer Certificate to authenticate VSU

A

’s Signed Certificate. 

The Issuer Certificate must be from the same PKI which created the VSU

A

Signed Certificate.

Use the Policy Manager for installing Issuer Certificates in a specific VSU. The VSU then uses 
the Issuer Certificate to authenticate certificates received from other VSUs.

The process is explained in 

1. Get an Issuer Certificate from a PKI System. Use the same PKI System that created the 

Signed Certificate.

2. The PKI System must use the Distinguishing Encoding Rules (DER) format for creating the 

Issuer Certificate.
