DESCRIPTION
This bar displays the percentage of the Zyxel Device'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.
Click this to go to the screen where you can have the Zyxel Device generate a certificate or
a certification request.
Double-click an entry or select it and click Edit to open a screen with an in-depth list of
information about the certificate.
The Zyxel Device keeps all of your certificates unless you specifically delete them. Uploading
a new firmware or default configuration file does not delete your certificates. To remove an
entry, select it and click Remove. The Zyxel Device confirms you want to remove it before
doing so. Subsequent certificates move up by one when you take this action.
You cannot delete certificates that any of the Zyxel Device's features are configured to use.
Select an entry and click References to open a screen that shows which settings use the
entry.
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, organization or company and
country. With self-signed certificates, this is the 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.
Click Import to open a screen where you can save a certificate to the Zyxel Device.
Click Refresh to display the current validity status of the certificates.
