Section IV: Security
Installing CA Certificates onto a Switch
This section lists the procedures that you will need to perform if the
switch’s certificate was created by a public or private CA. It should be
noted that a CA generated certificate actually consists of several
certificates. There is a minimum of two. All the certificates from the CA
must be installed on the switch.
Note
A certificate from a CA can only be used on the switch where you
created the encryption key pair and enrollment request. Do not
install the certificate on any other switch.
To install CA certificates on a switch, perform the following procedure:
1. Download the certificates from your management station or FTP
server to the AT-S63 file system on the switch. For instructions, refer
to ”Downloading a System File” on page 196.
2. Load the certificates into the certificate database. For instructions,
refer to ”Adding a Certificate to the Database” on page 588.
3. Activate HTTPS on the switch by configuring the web server and
specifying the key pair used to create the enrollment request as the
active key pair. For instructions, refer to ”Configuring the Web Server”
on page 542.
