Supplemental
Information
This command is provided mainly for testing purposes. For normal operation, the default cert trust should be set to untrusted. To
default all self-signed CA certificates to untrusted, use the no option.
Note: This command only applies to "new" certificates learned or provisioned in the C4 CMTS. Current self signed certificates will
not automatically have their trust state re-evaluated. To cause the current certificate default cert trust to be re-evaluated, they must
be deleted and relearned or reconfigured.
To set the default cert trust setting to default, (untrusted), the no option of this command can be used.
CAUTION: Self-signed certificates are a security risk. As a general rule, do not trust them.

The MAC identifier. Valid numbers are 0-415.
<trusted |
Allows all new self-signed CA certificates to be trusted.
untrusted>
Does not allow all new self-signed CA certificates to be trusted. The default is untrusted.
