IMPORTANT
•
When the CA certificate is valid, it is impossible to generate the CRT key.
•
When the CA certificate is used, the available key size varies depending on the CA. Confirm the
available key size in advance.
•
To generate the CRT key, it may take about 2 minutes. Do not operate the web browser until the
generation of CRT key is complete. While the CRT key is being generated, the refresh interval and line
speed may be lower.
