Create a TC8 Certificate Signing Request
If you deploy a PKI in your environment, create a CSR to make sure your system or device is trusted by
its network peers.
Only one CSR can exist on your device at a time. After you generate a CSR, get it signed and install it on
your device before generating another. If you generate a second CSR before you install the first one, the
device discards the previous CSR.
