Retrieving a Certificate
You can download an existing CA certificate or local certificate from the CA server and save it locally. To
do so, you can use two ways: online and offline. In offline mode, you need to retrieve a certificate by an
out-of-band means like FTP, disk, e-mail and then import it into the local PKI system.
