Netscape Certificate Management System Administrator’s Guide • June 2003
•
On the client side, bits set in the key usage extension are formed from
pre-defined HTTP input variables that can be embedded as hidden values in
the enrollment forms. You specify which bits are to be set by adding the
appropriate HTTP variables to the enrollment forms. Table 11-27 lists the
HTTP input variables that correspond to key usage extension bits.
The default enrollment forms provided for requesting various types of
certificates include the appropriate HTTP input variables that correspond to
the key-usage bits. By default only variables that correspond to key-usage bits
that need to be set are included in the form.
Typically, you won’t have to change the key-usage bit setting by editing the
enrollment forms as you can do this easily by making the appropriate changes
to the policy instance (bits set on the server side override the ones set on the
client side). However, if you want to add new variables on the client side, you
can do that too. Be sure to add the new variable in the following format:
<input type="HIDDEN" name="variable_name" value=true>
where,
variable_name
can be any of the HTTP input variables listed in Table
11-27.
NOTE
For all certificates, the key-usage-bits set on the server side (which
is governed by the policy) override the ones set on the client side.
