II-1-18 Certificates
A digital certificate is an electronic document issued by a certification authority (CA) to an entity to
prove ownership of a public key. It contains identifying information including the issued-to party's
name, a serial number, expiration dates etc., and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing
authority so that a recipient can verify that the certificate is real. Vigor router supports digital
certificates that conform to the X.509 standard.
In this section, you can generate and manage local digital certificates, and import trusted CA
certificates. Be sure that the system time is correct on the router so that certificates will not be
erroneously considered to be invalid because of an incorrect system time falling outside of the
certificate's valid time period. The easiest way to accomplish this is by periodically synchronizing the
system time to a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
