Identity certificate

[tolinrome tolinrome]

Hello everyone,

I'm using a wildcard certificate from a trusted 3rd party as an identity certificate. How do I add the new one received from the trusted 3rd party? Wouldn't I just add it when I receive it from them? Or do I need to create a new CSR from the ASA and send it to the trusted 3rd party and then receive it from them? thanks.

Hi Tolinrome,

That depends on you, if you have created the CSR request on the asa, then just go and add the new certificate on the asa.

CSR is a request you generate on the asa, and submit the file to the CA and they issue the certificate to you.

If you have generated the request from the open ssl then ask the 3rd party certificate authority to give the certificate in the .pfx or.pkcs12 format. This would have the private key and would not need a pending CSR request on the asa. You can directly export this cert on the asa.

Let me know for further queries. If my answer resolves your question, do mark the thread answered! :)

Thanks!!
