23.6 System > Certificates
The main component for VPN connections using IPSec or OpenVPN is the trust between two or more com-
munication partners.
An authenticity test is required for secure communications. This is done using PKI (public key infrastructure).
Certificates will ensure that the "right" partners communicate with each other. With a certificate, the certificate
holder (subject) proves their identity. The certificate may be issued by a higher authority (the Certificate Au-
thority (CA)) or by the certificate holder itself.
The certificate owner will therefore be designated as Subject and the certificate issuer as Issuer. Below the
