Chapter 6 Security Menu Bar Selection

CA Certification

Use SECURITY > IPSec Certificates > CA Certificate to navigate to this page.

This page contains the current CA certificate information. If you choose to add an operator-generated or

purchased CA Certificate, paste the new CA certificate ASCII text into the certificate box and click

Apply.

Caution Each certificate has a variable-length embedded RSA Key. The RSA key length can varies from512 bits,

which is relatively insecure, to thousands of bits, which is very secure. When you are obtaining a new

certificate from a Certificate Authority (such as the Microsoft CA), MAKE SURE the RSA key

embedded in the certificate is AT LEAST 768 Bits.
