114 Certificates and Client Authentication
Export Client Certificate
Before you transfer the private key and client certificate to the subject,
you should save the key and the certificate to a file using the export or
display command on the Certificate menu. The export command (see
following instruction) is recommended, as this provides you with the option
to select the PKCS12 file format (also known as PFX). Most Web browsers
accept importing a combined key and certificate file in the PKCS12 format.
This is how to export the client certificate to a TFTP/FTP/SCP/SFTP
server.
