Chapter 3 Running the Cisco VPN 5000 Client
Setting Up Digital Certificates
If there are no root certificates in the configuration file, a file browser window
(Figure 3-2) appears to allow you to import a root certificate file to be used during
login.
Figure 3-2 Import Root Certificate Window
You can also access this window by clicking the Import button on the Certificates
tab of the VPN Client window.
Each root certificate in the configuration file is validated during the login.
User Certificates
The user login method requires both a user certificate and a root certificate. The
user certificate validates the VPN client user to the concentrator, and the root
certificate validates the concentrator to the VPN client. User certificates are
associated with one user, while root certificates are associated to a concentrator
and can be used by multiple users.
