After you click Apply in the My Certificate Create screen, you see a screen that
tells you the NWA is generating the self-signed certificate or certification request.
After the NWA successfully enrolls a certificate or generates a certification request
or a self-signed certificate, you see a screen with a Return button that takes you
back to the My Certificates screen.
If you configured the My Certificate Create screen to have the NWA enroll a
certificate and the certificate enrollment is not successful, you see a screen with a
Return button that takes you back to the My Certificate Create screen. Click
Return and check your information in the My Certificate Create screen. Make
sure that the certification authority information is correct and that your Internet
connection is working properly if you want the NWA to enroll a certificate online.

DESCRIPTION
Select the certification authority's enrollment protocol from the
drop-down list box.
Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is a TCP-based
enrollment protocol that was developed by VeriSign and Cisco.
Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) is a TCP-based
enrollment protocol that was developed by the Public Key
Infrastructure X.509 working group of the Internet Engineering Task
Force (IETF) and is specified in RFC 2510.
Enter the IP address (or URL) of the certification authority server.
Select the certification authority's certificate from the CA
Certificate drop-down list box.
You must have the certification authority's certificate already
imported in the Trusted CAs screen. Click Trusted CAs to go to
the Trusted CAs screen where you can view (and manage) the
NWA's list of certificates of trusted certification authorities.
When you select Create a certification request and enroll for a
certificate immediately online, the certification authority may
want you to include a reference number and key to identify you
when you send a certification request. Fill in both the Reference
Number and the Key fields if your certification authority uses CMP
enrollment protocol. Just fill in the Key field if your certification
authority uses the SECP enrollment protocol.
Click Apply to begin certificate or certification request generation.
Click Cancel to quit and return to the My Certificates screen.
