Figure 77: An Example of a Signed Certificate
11. Cut the signed certificate from whatever file the PKI System sent it in, then paste it to the file
you created in Step 6. Include the header and footer.
Note:
The alignment of the right side of the certificate must be even (justified), so if the
Note:
certificate was sent to you in a web page where the last line may run past the
right side, just place a carriage return in the appropriate place of the line to even
it up. Also, place a carriage return at the end of the footer line.
12. Return to the Policy Manager for My Certificates for the specific VSU.
13. From the Maintain Certificates list, select the item identifying the requested certificate.
14. Click Download Fulfilled Request to VSU to open the Open dialog box.
15. Use the Look in drop-down list for navigating to the location of the signed certificate file.
The manager uses DER as the default filename extension, but TXT can be used.
16. Select the signed certificate file, then click Open to return to the Policy Manager window.
After the VSU has received the signed certificate, the Status column changes from Request
Ready to Cert Accepted.
Switching certificates used by VPNmanager Console
VPNmanager Console uses the default certificate of the VSU for establishing a secure
connection with a VSU. The default certificate can be used until it expires (6 years), or until the
VPNmanager Console is made to use a different certificate. The VSU certificate used by
VPNmanager Console can be changed anytime.
To switch certificates:
1. From the Device>Contents column, select the VSU you want to configure.
2. Click the Policies tab to bring it to the front.
3. From the drop-down list, select, then click GO to open the Policy Manager for My
Certificates.
