Step Command
Remarks
8.
(Optional.) Specify the
LDAP server.
ldap-server host
hostname
[
port
port-number
]
This task is required only when the
CRL repository is an LDAP server
and the URL of the CRL repository
does not contain the host name of
the LDAP server.
By default, no LDAP server is
specified.
9.
Enter a fingerprint to
be matched against
the fingerprint of the
root CA certificate.
•
In non-FIPS mode:
root-certificate fingerprint
{
md5
|
sha1
}
string
•
In FIPS mode:
root-certificate fingerprint sha1
string
Before a PKI entity can enroll with a
CA, it must authenticate the CA by
obtaining the self-signed certificate
of the CA and verifying the
fingerprint of the CA certificate.
If a fingerprint is not entered in the
PKI domain, and if the CA
certificate is imported or obtained
through manual certificate request,
you must verify the fingerprint that
is displayed during authentication
of the CA certificate.
If the CA certificate is obtained
through automatic certificate
request, the certificate will be
rejected if a fingerprint has not
been entered.
By default, no fingerprint is
specified.
10.
Specify the key pair for
certificate request.
•
Specify an RSA key pair:
public-key rsa
{ {
encryption name
encryption-key-name
[
length
key-length
] |
signature name
signature-key-name
[
length
key-length
] } * |
general name
key-name
[
length
key-length
] }
•
Specify a DSA key pair:
public-key dsa name
key-name
[
length
key-length
]
By default, no key pair is specified.
If the specified key pair does not
exist, the PKI entity automatically
creates the key pair before
submitting a certificate request.
For information about how to
generate DSA and RSA key pairs,
11.
(Optional.) Specify the
intended use for the
certificate.
usage
{
ike
|
ssl-client
|
ssl-server
} *
By default, the certificate can be
used by all applications, including
IKE, SSL clients, and SSL server.
The extension options contained in
an issued certificate depend on the
CA policy, and they might be
different from those specified in the
PKI domain.
