Chapter 9 Configuring SSL
Using SSL Keys
Importing SSL Key Pairs
Use this procedure to import an SSL key pair file.
Note The ACE supports a maximum of 4,096 key pairs.
Assumptions
• You have configured an ACE appliance for server load balancing. (See Load Balancing Overview,
page 5-1.)
• You have obtained an SSL key pair from a certificate authority (CA) and have placed the pair on a
network server accessible by the ACE appliance.
Procedure
Step 1 Choose Config > Virtual Contexts > context > SSL > Keys. The Keys table appears, listing existing
SSL keys.
The cisco-sample-key key pair is included in the list. For information on this sample key pair, see the
“Using SSL Certificates” section on page 9-6.
Step 2 Click Import. The Import dialog box appears.
To import multiple SSL key pairs, click Bulk Import. The Bulk Import dialog box appears.
Note SSL bulk import can take longer based on the number of SSL keys being imported. It will
progress to completion on the ACE. To see the imported keys in the ACE Device Manager,
perform a CLI synchronization for this context once the SSL bulk import has completed. For
information on synchronizing contexts, see the “Synchronizing Virtual Context Configurations”
section on page 4-79.
Step 3 Enter the applicable information as follows:
• For the Import dialog box, see Table 9-4.
• For the Bulk Import dialog box, see Table 9-5.
