LABEL DESCRIPTION
Name This field displays the identifying name of this certificate. You can use
up to 31 alphanumeric and ;‘~!@#$%^&()_+[]{}’,.=- characters.
Certification Path This field displays for a certificate, not a certification request.
Click the Refresh button to have this read-only text box display the
hierarchy of certification authorities that validate the certificate (and
the certificate itself).
If the issuing certification authority is one that you have imported as
a trusted certification authority, it may be the only certification
authority in the list (along with the certificate itself). If the certificate
is a self-signed certificate, the certificate itself is the only one in the
list. The ZyWALL does not trust the certificate and displays “Not
trusted” in this field if any certificate on the path has expired or been
revoked.
Refresh Click Refresh to display the certification path.

means that a Certification Authority signed the certificate. Self-signed
means that the certificate’s owner signed the certificate (not a
certification authority). “X.509” means that this certificate was

that defines the formats for public-key certificates.

key encryption algorithm and the MD5 hash algorithm).
