certificate for WLC web auth - HELP

[carl_townshend]

Hi all

I need to buy a cert for my WLC web authentication

I have read the document below

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6366/products_configuration_example09186a0080a77592.shtml              

However, I want to fill in the details and generate the CSR via the provider im buying the cert from, thawte

Am I ok doing all this via the provider, or do I need to use open SSL to generate the CSR?    

Can anyone post the steps in here I need to take when purchasing and installing a chained certificate on my WLC.

The WLC has the latest version of code.

cheers

Carl

Here are the instructions for a chained certificate.

It's simple enough, copy and paste the chanin below the certificate when you generate the final.pem.

Main thing to remember when compiling the final.pem use a version of OpenSSL < 1.0 as it won't install.

If your provider will generate the CSR for you it should be fine, but you will need the private key to recompile the certificate.

As you'll be using OpenSSL to recompile the certificate you may as well use it to generate the CSR, there's not much to it.

Thanks
