  Manage Certificates
CAPF and Cisco Unified CCX  CSRs include extensions that you must include in your request for an 
application certificate from the CA. If your CA does not support the ExtensionRequest mechanism, you 
must enable the X.509 extensions, as follows:
  •
The CAPF CSR uses the following extensions:
X509v3 extensions:
X509v3 Key Usage:
Digital Signature, Certificate Sign
X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
TLS Web Server Authentication, IPSec End System
  •
The CSRs for Cisco Unified CCX , Tomcat, and IPSec use the following extensions:
X509v3 Key Usage:
Digital Signature, Key Encipherment, Data Encipherment, Key Agreement
X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
TLS Web Server Authentication, TLS Web Client Authentication, IPSec End System
Upload the CA root certificate of the CA that signed an application certificate. If a subordinate CA signs 
an application certificate, you must upload the CA root certificate of the subordinate CA, not the root 
CA.
You upload CA root certificates and application certificates by using the same Upload Certificate dialog 
box. When you upload a CA root certificate, choose the certificate name with the format certificate 
type
-trust. When you upload an application certificate, choose the certificate name that only includes 
the certificate type. For example, choose tomcat-trust when you upload a Tomcat CA root certificate; 
choose tomcat when you upload a Tomcat application certificate.
When you upload a CAPF CA root certificate, it gets copied to the Unified CCX-trust store, so you do 
not need to upload the CA root certificate for Unified CCX separately.
Monitor Certificate Expiration Dates
The system can automatically send you an e-mail when a certificate is close to its expiration date. To 
view and configure the Certificate Expiration Monitor, follow this procedure:
