Send the certificate request
Contact a Certificate Authority (CA) to process your certificate request and
generate a certificate. Because there are many different Certificate Authorities,
you’ll need to contact your CA for instructions on how to do this.
Transmit the request from the previous section to your Certificate Authority,
according to the CA procedures. You may be asked to send the certificate request
in an email, or you may be able to enter the request through the CA's website.
Once you have sent your request, you must wait for the CA to respond with your
certificate. Response time for your request varies. For example, if your CA is
internal to your company, it may only take a day or two to respond to your request.
If your selected CA is external to your company, it could take several weeks to
respond to your request.
