Certificate Revocation List (CRL)
A
Certificate Revocation List (CRL)
is a way to check the validity of an existing certificate.
A certificate may be invalid for several reasons:
•
It is no longer needed.
•
A certificate was stolen or compromised.
•
A new certificate was issued that takes precedence over the old certificate.
If a certificate is invalid, the CA may publish the certificate on a
Certificate Revocation List
at a given interval, or on an online server in a X.509 v3 database using Online Certificate Status
Protocol (OCSP). Consult your CA provider for specific details on locating a CRL file or URL.
Note
: The SonicWALL supports obtaining the CRL via HTTP or manually downloading the list.
You can import the CRL by locating the URL and then importing it into the SonicWALL.
Certificates are checked against the CRL by the SonicWALL for validity when they are used.
