OCSP: Agent Services
This chapter describes how to perform Online Certificate Status Manager (OCSP) agent tasks,
such as identifying a CA to the OCSP and adding a CRL to the OCSP's internal database. This
service is available only when the OCSP subsystem is installed. The OCSP agent services
page allows authorized agents to accomplish these tasks.
NOTE
For this documentation, Online Certificate Status Manager is abbreviated OCSP.
1. Listing CAs Identified by the OCSP
The OCSP can be configured to receive CRLs from multiple CMs. Each CM that can publish
CRLs to the OCSP must have its CA signing certificate stored in the internal database of the
OCSP. For instructions, refer to Section 2, “Identifying a CA to the OCSP”.
The list of CMs currently recognized by the OCSP can be viewed at any time. To see the list of
CMs, do the following:
1. Open the OCSP agent services page.
2. In the left frame, click List Certificate Authorities.
