Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

About this task

Use this procedure to import client certificates to the Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, or Mozilla Firefox web browser. This is an optional procedure. After you perform this procedure, you will automatically be logged in to the web administration portal. The system will bypass the Login screen.

Before you begin

On the HTTP Clients tab, set OAMP to one of the following:

  • REQUIRED: For certificate authentication.

  • OPTIONAL: For certificate or password authentication.

For information on OAMP options, see Available certificate validation options.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the appropriate location in your web browser:

    • From Google Chrome, navigate to Settings > Show advanced settings > Manage certificates.

    • From Internet Explorer, navigate to Tools > Internet options > Content > Certificates.

    • From Mozzila Firefox, navigate to  > Options > Advanced > Certificates > View Certificates.

  2. Click Import to import the certificate to your browser.

    When prompted for a password, enter the same password that was used in the openssl command to convert the .pem file to a .pfx or .p12 file.

    Tip:

    To override the certificate authentication, in the SSH console, set com.avaya.cas.common.certificateauth to 0 as follows:

    CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -Dcom.avaya.cas.common.certificateauth=0"
