FMCv 6.7 HTTPS certificate

vsurresh
Level 1
Level 1

Hi, all.

I'm trying to import HTTPS certificate into FMCv running 6.7 code. I'm getting an 'Error Unable to verify certificate.'

Steps I took with OpenSSL to generate the cert:

  • Generated CSR from the FMC
  • Get the CSR signed by the Internal CA.
  • Tried to import the cert into FMC

This is what the cert looks like:

 

pi@raspberrypi:~/certs $ openssl x509 -in fmc-01.packet.lan.crt -text -noout
Certificate:

This is the OpenSSL config I used. 

 

 

pi@raspberrypi:~/certs $ cat fmc-01.txt 
[ v3_req ]
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
basicConstraints=CA:TRUE
keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment
extendedKeyUsage = serverAuth, clientAuth
subjectKeyIdentifier = hash

[req]
req_extensions = v3_req

[alt_names]
DNS.1 = fmc-01.packet.lan

Note - If I set the basic constraints to FALSE, I get a different error 'Error Basic constraints are not critical or not defined.'

 

Thanks

I managed to fix it by setting the basic constraints field. Thanks, everyone.

Hi,

When you sign the certificate, try to export it from CA using password
protection then import to FMC with option encrypted check and enter the
password.

Are you importing the certificate and private key combined? Your FMC will need both in order to present the certificate as its own.

Hi, Marvin.

I created the CSR on the FMC and get it signed by the internal CA. I believe the private key stays with FMC and we won't have access via the GUI.
