Usage Guidelines To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper
task IDs. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on
Cisco IOS XR Software module of the Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.
For security reasons, the sam delete certificate command can be issued only from the console port of
the networking device; the command cannot be issued from a Telnet connection to any other interface
on the networking device.
Use the show sam certificate summary command to display certificates by their index numbers.
Because the certificate authority (CA) certificate must not be unknowingly deleted, the Software
Authentication Manager (SAM) prompts the user for confirmation when an attempt is made to delete the
CA certificate.
If a certificate stored on the system is no longer valid (for example, if the certificate has expired), you
can use the sam delete certificate command to remove the certificate from the list.
