Importing and Activating a Certificate

Note

Due to the upgrade to OpenSSL 3, certificates that were generated using an older version are not supported. See Convert Unsupported Certificates to Use in HMG/HSG 4.0+ for details on how to convert the certificate to a supported format.

To import and activate a certificate:

1. In the sidebar, click Security.

2. Click Certificates in the navigation toolbar.

3. Click the Import button.

4. On the Import Certificate dialog:

   1. Keep the default Type: Certificates (Identity/CA-chains/Bundles).

   2. Type in the certificate name and fill in the remaining fields. See Certificate Settings.

   3. If your certificate is encrypted, enter the password.

   4. Drag and drop or click Browse and select the CA-signed certificate returned from the certificate request generated in the previous section.

      

5. Click Apply.

Note

If you receive an "Error verifying uploaded file" message, please see Convert Unsupported Certificates to Use in HMG/HSG 4.0+.

6. On the Certificates page, the newly imported certificate is added to the list. Click in the State column to activate the certificate.

7. Click the Reboot Gateway link and confirm the reboot in the resulting dialog to reboot your Gateway for the new active certificate to take effect.
