Replacing a default Certificate Authority bundle

The Certificate Authority (CA) bundle is required when using Web Authentication (SSO). You must upload a list of PEM-encoded X.509 public certificates for each root and intermediate Certificate Authority in the chain in order for clients to be successfully verified. 

To replace a default CA

  1. From the main menu, click the Administration icon.  
    The Administration page opens. 
  2. In the Security section, click HTTPS .
  3. On the HTTPS Configuration page, click Upload in the CA Certificates row.
  4. Click Browse next to CA Certificate Bundle File and select the certificate bundle returned by the certificate signing authority.
  5. Click Apply.
     The new certificate bundle is uploaded.

Note

If you are using Microsoft Certificate Services, you must use the Download CA certificate chain option with Base 64 encoding. This produces a PKCS #7 encoded file (.p7b) that is automatically converted to the correct format during the upload.
