Viewing and Loading CA Certificates
The Trusted Certificates (CA Certificates) table lists the certificates of CAs and contains the
following data:
• CA Identity (Subject Name). The organization or person to whom the certificate is issued.
• Issuer Name. The name of the CA that issued the certificate.
• Expiry Time. The date after which the certificate becomes invalid.
To view the VPN Certificates:
Select VPN from the main menu and Certificates from the submenu. The Certificates screen will
display. The top section of the Certificates screen displays the Trusted Certificates
(CACertificates) section.
When you obtain a self certificate from a CA, you will also receive the CA certificate. In addition,
many CAs make their certificates available on their websites.
To load a CA certificate into your VPN firewall:
1. Store the CA certificate file on your computer.
2. Under Upload Trusted Certificates on the Certificates screen, click Browse and locate the
CA certificate file.
3. Click upload. The CA Certificate will appear in the Trusted Certificates (CA Certificates)
