Obtaining and Importing a CA-signed Certificate

You can obtain a CA-signed certificate by creating a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) using Web
Config and submitting it to a certificate authority. The CSR created in Web Config is in PEM/DER format.
You can import one CSR created from Web Config at a time.
Note: : When you import a CA-signed Certificate by selecting Network Security > S/MIME > Client
Certificate, you cannot change Sender's Email Address under Network > Email Server > Basic. If
you want to change the Sender's Email Address, change all signature settings to Do not add
signature by selecting Network Security > S/MIME > Basic, and then delete the imported CA-signed
Certificate.

2. Select one of the available network security options and select a certificate option.

authority to download the CSR.
Caution: Do not generate another CSR or you may not be able to import a CA-signed certificate.
