Description
Specifies your organization's name.
Specifies the business group defined by your organization.
Note: The system supports only one OU field. If you want the CA-signed
certificate to include more than one OU, download and manually edit the CSR.
Specifies the system name. Polycom recommends the following guidelines for
this field:.
• For systems registered in DNS, use the system's fully qualified domain name
(FQDN).
• For systems not registered in DNS, use the system's IP address.
The SAN field allows you to specify additional host names to be protected by a
single SSL Certificate. It allows you to secure host names on different base
domains in a single SSL certificate or allows you to virtual host multiple SSL sites
on a single IP address.
This field may be required when using EAP-TLS in conjunction with a Network
Policy Server (MS-NPS). When it is selected, you can modify the example values
provided, to match local certificate requirements and delete those that are not
applicable.
• Principle Name—Specifies the user and domain name for logging in to a
Windows domain (e.g., user@example.com). (This is the userPrincipalName
attribute of the account object in Active Directory.)
It should be related to the 802.1X identity and password.
• DNS Name—If DNS/MCU Host name is configured, the configured name will
display, otherwise a default example will display:
DNS Name=myhost.example.com
Replace myhost.example.com with either FQDN of the RealPresence
Collaboration Server Management Network Interface or the MCU Host name.
• IP addresses
 If RMX is configured with IPv4, then the IPv4 address will display.
 If RMX is configured with IPv6, then the IPv6 address will display, besides
you can also enter additional IPv6 addresses.
 If RMX is configured with both IPv4 and IPv6, then both IP addresses will
display.
Specifies the hash algorithm for the CSR: SHA-256 (recommended) or SHA-1
(not recommended).
