LABEL DESCRIPTION
Name This field displays the identifying name of this certificate. You can change the
name. You can use up to 31 alphanumeric and ;‘~!@#$%^&()_+[]{}’,.=-
characters.
Certification Path Click the Refresh button to have this read-only text box display the end
entity’s certificate and a list of certification authority certificates that shows
the hierarchy of certification authorities that validate the end entity’s
certificate. If the issuing certification authority is one that you have imported
as a trusted certificate, it may be the only certification authority in the list
(along with the end entity’s own certificate). The ISG50 does not trust the end
entity’s 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the path has expired or been revoked.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.

and OCSP checking
Select this check box to have the ISG50 check incoming certificates that are
signed by this certificate against a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) or an OCSP
server. You also need to configure the OSCP or LDAP server details.
OCSP Server Select this check box if the directory server uses OCSP (Online Certificate
Status Protocol).
URL Type the protocol, IP address and pathname of the OCSP server.
ID The ISG50 may need to authenticate itself in order to assess the OCSP server.
Type the login name (up to 31 ASCII characters) from the entity maintaining
the server (usually a certification authority).
Password Type the password (up to 31 ASCII characters) from the entity maintaining the
OCSP server (usually a certification authority).
LDAP Server Select this check box if the directory server uses LDAP (Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol). LDAP is a protocol over TCP that specifies how clients access
directories of certificates and lists of revoked certificates.
Address Type the IP address (in dotted decimal notation) of the directory server.
Port Use this field to specify the LDAP server port number. You must use the same
server port number that the directory server uses. 389 is the default server
port number for LDAP.

server. Type the login name (up to 31 ASCII characters) from the entity
maintaining the server (usually a certification authority).
Password Type the password (up to 31 ASCII characters) from the entity maintaining the
CRL directory server (usually a certification authority).
