User Guidelines
• The command is not saved in the device configuration; however, the certificate and keys
generated by this command are saved in the private configuration (which is never displayed to
the user or backed up to another device).
• Use this command to generate a self-signed certificate for the device.
• If the RSA keys do not exist, parameter
key-generate must be used.
• When you export an RSA key pair to a PKCS#12 file, the RSA key pair is as secure as the
passphrase. Therefore, keep the passphrase secure.
