IPSec Certificate Configuration
IPSec can use either a shared secret or a a public key infrastructure (PKI) certificate for authentication.
To use certificated-based Internet Key Exchange (IKE) authentication for IPSec, you must request and
install a signed local certificate and a root certificate self-signed by the Certification Authority (CA) that
signed the local certificate. Once you have installed these certificates, you should back up your Integrated
Access Manager or Access Control Server configuration to save the certificates and the private key that is
provided with the certificates.
The 700wl Series system does not support chained certificates.
The process for installing a PKI certificate requires that you create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
through the 700wl Series system Administrative Console embodying information about the HP ProCurve
Access Control Server or Integrated Access Manager on which you will install the certificate. You then
provide the CSR to a Certification Authority, and then paste the resulting certificates into the 700wl Series
system.
To generate and store PKI certificates, do the following:
Step 1. Click the VPN icon in the Navigation bar at the top of the Administrative Console, then click the
Certificates tab. This displays the IPSec Certificate Configuration page, as shown in Figure 7-2.
