Usage Guidelines
The crypto ca crl request command allows you to pre-download CRLs for the trustpoints and cache the CRLs
in the certificate (cert) store. The CRL file specified should contain the latest CRL in either the Privacy
Enhanced Mail (PEM) format or Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) format.
The trustpoint configuration that you create with the crypto ca trustpoint command persists across device
reboots only if you save it explicitly using the copy running-config startup-config command. The certificates
and CRL associated to a trustpoint are automatically persistent when you save the trustpoint configuration in
the startup configuration. Otherwise, if you do not save the trustpoint in the startup configuration, the associated
certificates and CRL are not automatically persistent because they cannot exist without the corresponding
trustpoint after the device reboots.
To ensure that the configured certificates, CRLs and key pairs are persistent, always save the running
configuration in the startup configuration.
This command does not require a license.
Examples This example shows how to configure a CRL for the trustpoint or replaces the current CRL:
switch# configure teminal
switch(config)# crypto ca crl request admin-ca bootflash:admin-ca.crl
