are capable of interpreting the comment may display it to a relying party when the

For general guidelines on setting the Netscape certificate comment extension, see

The Netscape certificate comment extension policy in Certificate Management

certificates. You may choose to directly embed the text in the certificate itself or
point to the file that contains the statement.
During installation, Certificate Management System automatically creates an
instance of the Netscape certificate comment extension policy. See
"NSCCommentExt Rule" on page 212.
