Importing a Certificate

To import a certificate to a Site

  1. In the Administrator, connect to the server, then click the Server tab.

  2. On the main menu, click Tools, then click Certificate Manager. The Certificate Manager appears.

  3. In either the Trusted Certificates or Pending Certificates list, click Import.

  4. Browse to the folder that contains the client's certificate file and click the file.

    		5.

    The Server can import a digital certificate from the following formats: PEM, Base64 Encoded X509, DER Encoded X509, PKCS#7, PKCS#12.

    The Private Key associated with the digital certificate must be in one of the following formats: PEM, DER, PKCS#8, PKCS#12.

  5. Click Open. The Server automatically detects the certificate format. If the Server is unable to determine the format, or if the import fails, you can manually convert a digital certificate to one of the above formats and import it. Consult the distributor/vendor of your certificate for details on this process.

The certificate is added to the Trusted Certificates database. Clients submitting that certificate are now able to connect to the Server.
