Pre-Deployment Process
In this process:
1
A sponsor goes to the Verifone CA Web site and requests certificates for
deployment terminals.
2
Based on information provided by the sponsor through the Verifone CA Web
site, the Verifone CA determines the required certificate structure.
3
The Verifone CA generates the following items for the sponsor:
a
Smart card containing a set of certificates and private key.
b
Smart card PIN.
4
The Verifone CA sends the smart card and smart card PIN to the sponsor.
5
The sponsor uses the smart card and smart card PIN as inputs for the
deployment process.
