Deleting a Certificate
The procedure in this section deletes a certificate from the certificate
database. Please note the following before performing this procedure:
ˆ Deleting a certificate from the database does not delete it from the
switch. It continues to reside in the AT-S62 file system. To completely
remove a certificate from the switch, you must also delete it from the
file system. For instructions, refer to “Copying, Renaming, and
Deleting System Files” on page 183.
ˆ You cannot delete a certificate from the database if you specified its
corresponding encryption key as the active key in the web server
configuration. The switch will consider the certificate as in use and will
not allow you to delete it. You must first configure the web server with
another encryption key pair for a different certificate. For instructions,
refer to “Configuring the Web Server” on page 683.
This procedure starts from the X509 Certificate Management menu. If you
are unsure how to access the menu, perform steps 1 to 4 in the procedure
“Adding a Certificate to the Database” on page 722.
To delete a certificate from the certificate database, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the X509 Certificate Management menu, type 3 to delete a
certificate.
The following message is displayed:
Enter certificate name (ALL - delete all) ->
2. Enter the name of the certificate you want to delete. (This field is case-
sensitive.) To delete all the certificates, enter ALL.
3. After making changes, type R until you return to the Main Menu. Then
type S to select Save Configuration Changes.
