Configuring certificate password
Although it is not a common scenario, depending upon the policy of the CA,
the certificates issued by the CA can be encrypted. In cases where the
certificate is encrypted, then a password is needed to decrypt them. This
password is defined here.

Authenticating the CA and importing a CA certificate
Authenticate the certificate authority and import the CA certificate. Importing
CA certificate varies depending on the configured enrollment method
(terminal or SCEP).
If the enrollment method is SCEP, the system imports the digital certificate of
the CA using the SCEP protocol. And if the enrollment method is terminal,
the system prompts you to paste the certificate obtained from the CA.
