Netscape Certificate Management System (CMS) provides HTML forms-based
interfaces for agents to use in performing certificate- and key-related operations.
This chapter introduces these forms and explains how they work. You can use the
forms as they are provided out of the box or customize them to meet your
organization's requirements.

Agent Services Interface
As an administrator, you can designate privileged users, called agents, for each
subsystem. Agents are responsible for the day-to-day operation of requests from
end entities. To enable agents to accomplish their duties, Certificate Management
System provides a set of HTML forms for Certificate Manager, Registration
Manager, and Data Recovery Manager agents. Collectively, these forms are called
the Agent Services interface.
Depending on the subsystem you chose during installation, one of the following
agent services will be installed:
•
Certificate Manager Agent Services
•
Registration Manager Agent Services
•
Data Recovery Manager Agent Services
