Netgear FVS318Gv2 – ProSAFE VPN Firewall Series 참조 매뉴얼

recommends that you replace this digital certificate with a digital certificate from a well-known 
commercial CA before you deploy the VPN firewall in your network.

This section contains the following topics:

You can view the loaded digital certificates, upload a new digital certificate, and generate a 
certificate signing request (CSR). The VPN firewall typically holds two types of digital 
certificates:

CA certificates. Each CA issues its own digital certificate to validate communication with 
the CA and to verify the validity of digital certificates that are signed by the CA.

Self-signed certificates. The digital certificates are issued to you by a CA to identify 
your device.

The Certificates screen contains four tables that are described in detail in the following 
sections:

Trusted Certificates (CA Certificate) table. Contains the trusted digital certificates that 
were issued by CAs and that you uploaded. 

For more information, see 

on page 309.

Active Self Certificates table. Contains the self-signed certificates that were issued by 
CAs and that you uploaded.

For more information, see 

Self Certificate Requests table. Contains the self-signed certificate requests that you 
generated. These requests were either submitted to CAs or not, and CAs either issued 
digital certificates for these requests or did not. Only the self-signed certificates in the 
Active Self Certificates table are active on the VPN firewall. 

For more information, see 

Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) table. Contains the lists with digital certificates that 
were revoked and are no longer valid, that were issued by CAs, and that you uploaded. 
Note, however, that the table displays only the active CAs and their critical release dates. 

For more information, see 

on page 316.
