Certificate Creation
The Certificate Management screen provides the facility for creating new self-signed certificates.
Self signed certificates (often referred to as root certificates) do not use public or private CAs. A self
signed certificate is a certificate signed by its own creator, with the certificate creator responsible
for its legitimacy.
To create a self-signed certificate that can be applied to a managed device:
1. Select the Launch Manager button from either the SSH RSA Key, RADIUS Certificate Authority
or RADIUS Server Certificate parameters (within the Certificate Management screen).
2. Select Create Certificate from the upper, left-hand, side of the Certificate Management screen.
