I cannot get a certificate to import into the NWA3000-N series AP.
1
For
My Certificates
, you can import a certificate that matches a corresponding
certification request that was generated by the NWA3000-N series AP. You can
also import a certificate in PKCS#12 format, including the certificate’s public and
private keys.
2
You must remove any spaces from the certificate’s filename before you can import
the certificate.

Any certificate that you want to import has to be in one of these file formats:
• Binary X.509: This is an ITU-T recommendation that defines the formats for
X.509 certificates.
• PEM (Base-64) encoded X.509: This Privacy Enhanced Mail format uses
lowercase letters, uppercase letters and numerals to convert a binary X.509
certificate into a printable form.
• Binary PKCS#7: This is a standard that defines the general syntax for data
(including digital signatures) that may be encrypted. A PKCS #7 file is used to
transfer a public key certificate. The private key is not included. The NWA3000-
N series AP currently allows the importation of a PKS#7 file that contains a
single certificate.
• PEM (Base-64) encoded PKCS#7: This Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) format uses
lowercase letters, uppercase letters and numerals to convert a binary PKCS#7
certificate into a printable form.
• Binary PKCS#12: This is a format for transferring public key and private key
certificates.The private key in a PKCS #12 file is within a password-encrypted
envelope. The file’s password is not connected to your certificate’s public or
private passwords. Exporting a PKCS #12 file creates this and you must provide
it to decrypt the contents when you import the file into the NWA3000-N series
AP.
Note: Be careful not to convert a binary file to text during the transfer process. It is
easy for this to occur since many programs use text files by default.
I can only see newer logs. Older logs are missing.
When a log reaches the maximum number of log messages, new log messages
automatically overwrite existing log messages, starting with the oldest existing log
message first.
