Deleting a Certificate
The procedure in this section deletes a certificate from the certificate
database. Please note the following before performing this procedure:
❑ 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 156.
❑ 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 490.
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 528.
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.

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.
