Self-signed
Select the Signature Type:
• Self-signed: The certificate will be
generated and signed by the system,
and the name will be added to the list of
Identity Certificates.
• Certificate Signing Request: A request
will be generated, and its name will be
added to the list of Identity Certificates.
The request will be located in your home
directory (accessible through the CLI), or
you may export it by clicking on the
View
button and copying the content into a
new file in a text editor.
In its generated form, this certificate is
still a request and cannot be used as an
Identity Certificate before it is signed by
a CA, and imported back.
