Personal certificate requests collection

Use this page to manage personal certificate requests. Personal certificate requests are temporary place holders for certificates that will be signed by a certificate authority (CA).

To view this administrative console page, click Security > SSL certificate and key management > Manage endpoint security configurations > {Inbound | Outbound} > ssl_configuration . Under Related items, click Key stores and certificates > key store . Under Additional Properties, click Personal certificate requests.

A private key is generated during the certificate request generation, but only the certificate is sent to the CA. The CA generates a new certificate, signed by the CA. This can be added in the Personal Certificates panel.
