Importing the A10 Client SSL Certificate

Last Updated : Jun 05, 2026 |

About this task

The following procedure describes how to import the A10 Client SSL Certificate.

Before you begin

Obtain an X509 certificate and the associated private key from a Certificate Authority.

Important:

To successfully establish the SSL connection with the A10 server, the Avaya Aura® Device Services enabled client must import the root certificate of the CA that you use in your deployment. In an Avaya Aura® environment, this is the System Manager root certificate by default. If you do not use System Manager for certificate management or if you use Avaya Aura® Device Services in an environment without Avaya Aura®, this is the third-party CA root certificate.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the ACOS administration interface.
  2. In the Config Mode tab, select SLB > SSL Management > Certificate.
  3. Click Import.
  4. Enter the required information:

    • The name of the certificate file.

    • The source for importing the certificate: local, remote, or text.

    • The certificate file format.

    • The source for importing the Key file: local, remote, or text.

    • The key file format.

    Note:

    In order for the Split-Horizon DNS to work properly, you must provide the certificate Common Name with a FQDN and not an IP address. The A10 external FQDN must also match the Avaya Aura® Device Services internal FQDN.

  5. Click OK and then click Save.
