This option is to allow client automatically get certificates and renew
certificates using SCEP protocol.
ScepAutoEnroll—Set this keyword to yes to enable client's functionality to
automatically obtain certificate.
Set AutoRenew—Set this keyword to yes to enable certificate auto renew.
Client only tries to renew certificates requested either manually or
automatically through SCEP from this client, and the renewal is performed
only after a certificate's 1/2 valid period has passed.
Set InstallCACert—Set this keyword to yes to install the root CA's
certificate as trusted certificate after successfully getting a client certificate.
CountryName, State, Locality, Organization, OrganizationUnit,
CommonName, Email—These keywords together compose the subject
identity of the requested client certificate. Country Name should be two
letter in uppercase, other fields are printable strings with a length shorter
than 64 bytes, and email_address should have a '@' in it. At least one of the
above fields must be configured correctly to form the client certificate's
subject identity.
KeyUsage —This option is to specify key usage of the client certificate and
should be set to a digitalSignature, keyEncipherment or both using a ';'
concatenating these two as digitalSignature;keyEncipherment.
KeyLength—This option is to specify the key length of the client certificate
in bits, must one of the value in the list.
subAltName—This option is to specify the client certificate's subject
alternative names. It is a sequenced list of name elements, and every element
is either a DNS name or an IP address. Use ';' as delimiter between them.
RequestURL—The RequestURL option is to specify the SCEP server
service URL. This field must be set correctly. The default protocol for SCEP
services is HTTP, which also ensures data security. You can also add the
prefix https:// if SCEP service is deployed on HTTPS in your environment.
CACertHashType—CACertHashType is used to verify the authenticity of
the certificate authority. This option must be set to MD5, SHA1, or SHA256.
CACertHash—This is the hash value used to verify certificate authority's
certificate. Client will not issue a certificate request to a SCEP server and
cannot pass certificate chain checking through a valid certificate authority.
EnrollPwd or EnrollPwdEnc—These keywords are used to set the
enrollment password from a SCEP administrator.
EnrollPwd is the plain-text enrollment password and EnrollPwdEnc is the
encrypted form of the same enrollment password. Use only one of these two
fields to set the used enrollment password.
As a substitute of using EnrollPwd or EnrollPwdEnc to directly specify an
enrollment password, client allows using a SCEP administrator's credential to
automatically get an enrollment password from a Windows SCEP server. In
this case, the ScepUser, ScepUserDomain, ScepUserPwd (or
ScepUserPwdEnc, in encrypted form instead of plan-text) are used to specify
the SCEP administrator's credential, and ScepAdminUrl must be set correctly
