How to install a godaddy .crt file on ASAv10

[Support1066]

Hi All,

I have .crt file from Godaddy that I need to install on my ASAv10 identity certificates. In ADSM the add button wants a pkcs12 format and Godaddy only provides .crt and pem files. I could really use some advice/guidance.  Thanks all!

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.19(1)12
SSP Operating System Version 2.13(0.234)
Device Manager Version 7.19(1)

ADSM v7.19(1)

Step-by-Step: Convert CRT + Private Key + PEM Chain → PFX (PKCS#12)
What You Need:
Your certificate from GoDaddy (e.g., your_domain.crt)

Your private key (you generated this when you created the CSR, e.g., your_domain.key)

The GoDaddy intermediate certificate bundle (gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt or similar)

OpenSSL (available on most Linux/Mac systems, or via Git Bash for Windows, or OpenSSL for Windows)

OpenSSL Command to Create a PFX File
bash
Copy
Edit
openssl pkcs12 -export \
-inkey your_domain.key \
-in your_domain.crt \
-certfile gd_bundle-g2-g1.crt \
-out your_domain.p12
Notes:
-inkey: Your private key

-in: Your primary SSL certificate

-certfile: Intermediate certificates (PEM/CRT bundle from GoDaddy)

-out: The resulting .p12 file

It will ask for a password — this is the password ADSM will ask for when you import the identity certificate.

Import into ASDM
Open ASDM

Go to Configuration > Device Management > Certificate Management > Identity Certificates

Click Add

Select Import the identity certificate from a file

Browse to your .p12 file

Enter the password you used in the OpenSSL command

Finish the wizard and apply
