DESCRIPTION

PKI Storage

Space in Use

This bar displays the percentage of the ZyWALL’s PKI storage space that is

currently in use. When the storage space is almost full, you should consider

deleting expired or unnecessary certificates before adding more certificates.

Replace

This button displays when the ZyWALL has the factory default certificate. The

factory default certificate is common to all ZyWALLs that use certificates. ZyXEL

recommends that you use this button to replace the factory default certificate with

one that uses your ZyWALL's MAC address.

#

This field displays the certificate index number. The certificates are listed in

alphabetical order.

Name

This field displays the name used to identify this certificate. It is recommended that

you give each certificate a unique name.

Type

This field displays what kind of certificate this is.
REQ represents a certification request and is not yet a valid certificate. Send a

certification request to a certification authority, which then issues a certificate. Use

the My Certificate Import screen to import the certificate and replace the request.
SELF represents a self-signed certificate.
*SELF represents the default self-signed certificate, which the ZyWALL uses to

sign imported trusted remote host certificates.
CERT represents a certificate issued by a certification authority.
