A digital certificate may be imported from either the PKCS#12 format, which is a single file containing one
or more certificates and an encrypted private key, or from three individual files for the certificate, private
key (optionally encrypted with a passphrase), and the root certificate authority.
Complete the form with the details for your certificate, and click Continue to proceed to Step 2.
Installing a Server Certificate from a Certificate Authority
The Install Server Certificate form is used to install a digital certificate you have obtained from a third-
party certificate authority. This certificate should correspond to a certificate signing request that you
previously created using the New Certificate Request form.
Select the certificate file and the certificate authority's root certificate, and click the
Certificate button.
Installing an Imported Server Certificate
In step 2, the details of the imported RADIUS server certificate and its issuer are shown, including the
certificate's validity period.
Select the Use this certificate to identify this RADIUS server check box and click the
Settings button to complete the import process and configure the EAP server certificate
.
After importing the certificate, the RADIUS server will need to be restarted to complete the changes.
Exporting Server Certificates
The Export Server Certificate form is used to export the RADIUS server's digital certificate, or the
certificate authority's root certificate, in several different formats.
Select one of these options to export a certificate file:
Server certificate and CA issuer certificate (PKCS#7) – use this option to download a file
containing the certificates for the CA and the server.
Server certificate chain including private key (PKCS#12) – use this option if you are backing up
the server's certificate, or moving it to another server. A passphrase is strongly recommended to protect
the private key.
Server certificate only – use this option to download just the RADIUS server's certificate, in either
PKCS#7, Base-64 encoded (PEM), or binary (DER) formats.
CA issuer certificate only – use this option to download the root certificate for the certificate
authority.
