Chapter 9. TPS: Managing Token and Smart Card Operations
• Clicking the Show Certificates button lists the certificates which are stored on the token.
• Clicking the Show Activities button lists the operations which have been performed on the token.
9.2.3. Searching Certificates
NOTE
It is possible to list the certificates for a single token by opening the token information
page and then clicking the Show Certificates button.
Certificates are recorded as attributes of the token, so the search is for the token rather than the
certificate alone.
To find all tokens, a subset of tokens, or a specific token, click the List/Search Certificates link in the
Operator Operations tab, and fill in the name of the user or the whole or partial token identification
number (CUID). The certificates search form, then, appears identical to the regular token search form.
As with searching for tokens, asterisks (*) can be used in the search fields as wildcards and leaving a
field blank returns all tokens.
There is a maximum allowed number of search results configured for the TPS Directory Server
database, so the number of entries returned is constrained by the search limit. Each results page
shows 25 records.
Figure 9.4. Results for Searching for Certificates
The results show all of the information about the certificate:
• ID, the unique entry ID for the certificate
• Serial number, the serial number of the certificate, which is assigned by the CA which issued it
• Subject, the subject name of the certificate; this usually identifies the user of the certificate
• Token ID, the ID of the token on which the certificate is enrolled
• Key Type, the kind of key, which indicates the purpose or usage of the certificate
• Last Status, which is the status of the certificate as of the last time the token was processed
(meaning it may not reflect the most current status)
