4.3 Managing Certificate Authority (CA) Certificates
Certificate management includes the following sections:
• Importing a CA Certificate
• Creating Self Certificates for Accessing the VPN
4.3.1 Importing a CA Certificate
A certificate authority (CA) is a network authority that issues and manages security credentials and
public keys for message encryption. The CA signs all digital certificates that it issues with its own
private key. The corresponding public key is contained within the certificate and is called a CA
certificate. A browser must contain this CA certificate in its Trusted Root Library so that it can trust
certificates “signed” by the CA's private key.
Shared Secret Define a shared secret for authentication on the server. The shared
secret is required to be the same as the shared secret defined on
the Radius server. Use shared secrets to verify Radius messages
(with the exception of the Access-Request message) sent by a
Radius-enabled device configured with the same shared secret.
Apply the qualifications of a well-chosen password to the
generation of a shared secret. Generate a random, case-sensitive
string using letters, numbers and symbols. The default is symbol.
