Specifying a user certificate
This property may be changed only for internal authentication users. See DSView software
internal authentication service on page 88.
A user may specify a certificate if the administrator has allowed it; see the procedure below. If
the system certificate policy is enabled for user certificates (see System certificate policy and
trust store on page 52), the user certificate used at login must meet the policy requirements.
As an alternative, the administrator may specify the certificate in the user account properties.
See User certificates on page 268.
To enable user settable certificates:
NOTE: Only DSView software administrators may access this procedure.
1. Click the System tab.
2. Click Global Properties.
