Exporting a certificate and private key

You can generate a self-signed certificate and private key for testing purposes.

The certificate is generated immediately after you have provided all the required 
information. However, the test certificate and key are not activated until you apply 
the changes.

To generate a test certificate, perform the following steps:

Access the Certificate menu by using the 

/cfg/cert <cert id>

 

command, where <

> is an unused certificate number.

Generate the test certificate. Enter the following command:

>> Certificate 1# export

Select protocol (tftp/ftp/scp/sftp) [tftp]: ftp

Enter hostname or IP address of server: ftp.example.com

Select the desired export format, enter a pass phrase and 

specify the name of the output file.

Enter export format (pem/der/net/pkcs12): pkcs12

Enter export pass phrase: <passphrase>

Reconfirm export pass phrase: <passphrase once again>

Enter name of combined key and certificate file on remote 

host: cert.pfx
