Managing private keys and certificates 315
2 Access the Certificate menu by using the /cfg/cert <cert
id> command, where <cert id> is the certificate number.
To install a new certificate, specify an unused certificate number.
To replace an installed certificate, specify the installed certificate
index number.
To view basic information about all configured certificates,
use the /info/certs command. To verify that the current
certificate number is not in use by an installed certificate, use the
/cfg/cert #/show command.
3 Import the certificate. Enter the following command:
/cfg/cert #/import
You are prompted to enter the certificate and private key import
information. If the private key has been password protected, you
are prompted for the correct password phrase as well. Table 55
"Certificate and key import information" (page 315) explains the
required parameters.
