There can be three reasons why a security alert is generated for a security certificate:
•
The security certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust.
•
The date of the security certificate is invalid.
•
The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site.
When a security alert is generated, the user can decide whether to trust the host.

Generate a CSR and Obtain a Self-Signed Certificate from a CA
To use a self-signed certificate, you first need to request the digital certificate from a CA, and
download and activate the digital certificate on the wireless VPN firewall. To request a
self-signed certificate from a CA, you need to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) for
and on the wireless VPN firewall. The CSR is a file that contains information about your
company and about the device that holds the certificate. Refer to the CA for guidelines about
the information that you need to include in your CSR.
