A trusted certificate must be a Certificate Authority (CA) certificate. To add a trusted certificate to certificate repository, upload the pem format file to /var/home/ftp/pub directory. Trusted certificate installation must be performed on the active Communication Manager server in a Duplex system pair.
Note:
There is NO need to copy the root CA cert file to the standby Communication Manager server. The root CA cert file is copied by Communication Manager’s active server, as part of server synchronization, immediately after the CA cert was installed onto the active Communication Manager server.
  1. On the Communication Manager SMI interface, click Administration Server (Maintenance).
  2. In the Security section, click Trusted Certificates.
  3. Click Add.
  4. Enter file name of the certificate in the /var/home/ftp/pub folder.
  5. Click Open to validate the certificate.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    After successful verification, the Trusted Certificates – Add page shows the issued-to, issued-by, and date of expiration information for the added certificate.
  6. Enter a file name to use to store the certificate.
  7. Select the appropriate repositories in which the certificate needs to be installed.
  8. Click Add.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    If you fail to install a certificate in one repository, it does not affect the installation in other repositories.
