To specify the details for the CRL:
In the navigation tree, select Certificate Manager, and then in the right pane,
1.
select the Revocation List tab.
In the Update Frequency section, specify the interval for publishing the CRL to
2.
the directory:
Every time a certificate is revoked, or taken off-hold. Select this option if you
want the Certificate Manager to generate the CRL every time it revokes a
certificate. Keep in mind that the Certificate Manager attempts to publish the
CRL to the configured directory whenever it is generated, in this case, every
time a certificate is revoked. Publishing a CRL can be time consuming if the
CRL is large. Configuring the Certificate Manager to publish CRLs every time a
certificate is revoked may engage the server for a considerable amount of time;
during this time, the server will not be able to service any requests it receives
and will not be able to update the directory with any changes it receives.
(This setting is not recommended for a standard installation. You can select this
option if you want to see the results of revocation immediately, for example,
when testing whether the server publishes the CRL to a flat file.)
Update at this frequency. Select this option if you want the Certificate
Manager to generate CRLs at regular intervals. In this case, the server
publishes the CRL to the configured directory at the interval you specify.
