I have Problems to cofigurate CA's on LINUX

[admin_2]

I´ve configured a Certificate Authority on Linux to autenticate IPSec network devices, but I think Cisco only support Windows CA's. Anybody know how to enable Cisco support for Linux CA's ????

Hi,

Cisco devices support any kind of CA, it doesn`t matter if it is a windows or linux ca. It `s just a matter how the ca and the cisco device communicate. Either online enrollement via scep or offline via a pkcs#10 request.

but types are supported with cisco devices.

if you`d like to use scep, take a look at openscep.othello.ch or www.openca.org . These unix ca`s support both scep protocol.

for pkcs#10 I think you can use any ca you´d like.

For more detailed information on how to enroll with ca please be more specific in what type of cisco device you`d like to use (pix, ios router or vpn concentrator , .... )

regards

Michael

You have mentioned offline via pkcs#10. How can use 'offline' enrollment of PIX firewall via pkcs#10.

Is there any white papers on it?
