Configuring a PKI domain

A PKI domain contains enrollment information for a PKI entity. It is locally significant and is intended
only for reference by other applications like SSL.
Before enrolling with a CA, a PKI entity must authenticate the CA by obtaining the self-signed
certificate of the CA and verifying the fingerprint of the root CA certificate.
You can preconfigure the fingerprint for root CA certificate verification in a PKI domain.
If the CA certificate is imported or obtained through manual certificate request, the device
automatically compares the configured fingerprint with the fingerprint in the CA certificate. If the
two fingerprints do not match, the device rejects the CA certificate, and the certificate import or
request fails. If no fingerprint is configured in the PKI domain, the device displays the fingerprint
contained in the CA certificate on the terminal and asks you to manually verify the fingerprint.
If the CA certificate is obtained through automatic certificate request, the device automatically
verifies the CA certificate's fingerprint by using the fingerprint configured in the PKI domain. If
no fingerprint is configured in the domain, the device rejects the certificate.
To configure a PKI domain:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Create a PKI domain
and enter its view.
