certificate

down list boxes and enter the certification authority’s server address. You also

box.

Authentication
When you select Create a certification request and enroll for a certificate
immediately online , the certification authority may want you to include a
reference number and key to identify you when you send a certification
request. Fill in both the Reference Number and the Key fields if your
certification authority uses CMP enrollment protocol. Just fill in the Key field if
your certification authority uses the SCEP enrollment protocol.
