DESCRIPTION
This bar displays the percentage of the ZyWALL's PKI storage space that is
currently in use. When the storage space is almost full, you should consider
deleting expired or unnecessary certificates before adding more certificates.
This field displays the certificate index number. The certificates are listed in
alphabetical order.
This field displays the name used to identify this certificate. It is recommended that
you give each certificate a unique name.
This field displays what kind of certificate this is.
REQ represents a certification request and is not yet a valid certificate. Send a
certification request to a certification authority, which then issues a certificate. Use
the My Certificate Import screen to import the certificate and replace the request.
SELF represents a self-signed certificate.
CERT represents a certificate issued by a certification authority.
This field displays identifying information about the certificate's owner, such as CN
(Common Name), OU (Organizational Unit or department), O (Organization or
company) and C (Country). It is recommended that each certificate have unique
subject information.
This field displays identifying information about the certificate's issuing certification
authority, such as a common name, organizational unit or department,

same information as in the Subject field.
This field displays the date that the certificate becomes applicable.
This field displays the date that the certificate expires. The text displays in red and
includes an Expired! message if the certificate has expired.

confirm that you want to delete the certificate. Subsequent certificates move up by
one when you take this action.
You cannot delete certificates that any of the ZyWALL's features are configured to
use.
