Step Remarks

2. Creating a PKI domain

Required.
Create a PKI domain, setting the certificate request mode to Auto.
Before requesting a PKI certificate, an entity needs to be configured with

some enrollment information, which is referred to as a PKI domain.
A PKI domain is intended only for convenience of reference by other
applications like IKE and SSL, and has only local significance.

3. Destroying the RSA key pair

Optional.
If the certificate to be retrieved contains an RSA key pair, you must
destroy the existing RSA key pair. Otherwise, the certificate cannot be

retrieved. Destroying the existing RSA key pair also destroys the

corresponding local certificate.

4. Retrieving and displaying a

certificate

Optional.
Retrieve an existing certificate and display its contents.

IMPORTANT:

Before retrieving a local certificate in online mode, be sure to

complete LDAP server configuration.

If a CA certificate already exists, you cannot retrieve another CA

certificate. This restriction avoids inconsistency between the

certificate and registration information due to related configuration

changes. To retrieve a new CA certificate, remove the existing CA
certificate and local certificate first.

5. Retrieving and displaying a

CRL

Optional.
Retrieve a CRL and display its contents.
