browser, the steps differ slightly.

1. Enter the following URL in your IE browser, depending on the cloud provider you want to

access.

Example: Savvis: https://api.savvis.net

2. Select File  Properties.

3. Click Certificates and then the Certification Path, and select the root of the path.

4. Click the Details tab, and press Copy to File to start the Certificate Export Wizard, and

click Next.

5. Select Base-64 and click Next.

6. Enter a name for the certificate file and click Next.

7. Click Finish to complete the export process.

8. After the certificate has been successfully downloaded, import it by entering the

command:

C:\>mxcert -t -f <certificate filename>

9. Verify that the certificate was successfully imported by entering the command:

C:\>mxcert –ld
