•
• No key pair is specified for the PKI domain for certificate request, or the specified key pair does not
match the local certificates to the obtained.

•
incorrect.
CRL checking is enabled, but CRLs do not exist locally or CRLs cannot be obtained.
•
• The CA server does not accept the source IP address specified in the PKI domain, or the source IP
address is incorrect.

Solution
1. Check for and fix any network connection problems.
2. Obtain or import the CA certificate.
3. Configure the correct LDAP server.
4. Specify the key pair used for certificate request in the PKI domain, or remove the existing key pair
and submit a certificate request again.

the policy requirements.
6. Obtain the CRL from the CRL repository.
7. Specify the correct source IP address that the CA server can accept. For the correct settings,
contact the CA administrator.
