Certificate request from a Windows 2003 CA server

Network requirements

Configure the PKI entity (the device) to request a local certificate from the CA server. A Windows 2003

server acts as the CA server.

Configuring the CA server

1.

Install the certificate service component:

a.

Select Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs from the start menu.

b.

Select Add/Remove Windows Components > Certificate Services.

c.

Click Next to begin the installation.

d.

Set the CA name. In this example, set the CA name to myca.

2.

Install the SCEP add-on:
The Windows 2003 server does not support SCEP by default. Install the SCEP add-on on the server
so that the device can automatically register and obtain its certificate from the server. After the

SCEP add-on installation completes, you will see a URL. Use the URL to configure it on the device
as the URL of the registration server for certificate request.

3.

Modify the certificate service attributes:

a.

Select Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Certificate Authority from the start menu.
If the certificate service component and SCEP add-on have been installed successfully, there

should be two certificates issued by the CA to the RA.

b.

Right-click the CA server in the navigation tree and select Properties > Policy Module.

c.

Click Properties and then select Follow the settings in the certificate template, if applicable.
Otherwise, automatically issue the certificate.
