Caution: Installing or removing certificates requires a restart
Installing or removing certificates requires a system restart and terminates all active conferences.
When you install or remove a certificate, the change is made to the certificate store immediately, but
the system can’t implement the change until it restarts and reads the changed certificate store.
For your convenience, you’re not required to restart and apply a change immediately. This permits you
to perform multiple installs or removals before restarting and applying the changes. But when you’re
finished making changes, you must select Restart to Apply Saved Changes to restart the system
and finish your update. Before you begin, make sure there are no active conferences and you’re
prepared to restart the system when you’re finished.
