  • 1.  SSL Certificate

    Posted Jun 24, 2021 11:38 AM
    Hi all,

    I am  relatively new to using AWMS and to networking.  I am trying to get rid of the  ssl warning when logging into AWMS.  I have tried several different ways of exporting and importing certificates to my laptop.  

    I went in to the CLI to generate a CSR for a certificate.  When trying  to import the  SSL cert I get the following message :
    "The file must be in PKCS12 format with a .pfx or .p12 suffix.
    It should contain both the private RSA key and the certificate."

    My question is where get the private RSA key to go with the certificate?

    Please follow the procedures from the AirWave User Guide.

    If you created the CSR on AirWave, you will need to import the certificate as *.crt (PEM encoded), not as P12. In most cases, I would recommend generating the CSR on an external server (like with OpenSSL), so you have access to the private key and can store a backup of it, and import the certificate as P12.

    Herman,

    Thanks for the reply....I had the cert generated with out a password.  My understanding is that if the SSL cert has a password you would need to enter that every time you went to the site.  Is that not the case?
