  • 1.  Imports Certs

    Posted Jul 31, 2019 01:50 AM

    HI Team,

    I have a .PFX file and I want to import it to Gateway. I am confuse with the points I read in CA Document in
    "IMPORT PRIVATE KEYS" and
    "IMPORT Certificates"

    Now I have few questions:

    -- where I need to import the PFX file (In Certificate or Provate Keys)
    -- Or do I need to use OPENSSL to separate cert and key and then upload it separately.


    Please help!

    Regards
    Prat

    Hi, Prat.

    To import a PFX ( or P12 ) file, you use the Import Private Key feature
    https://docops.ca.com/ca-api-gateway/9-4/en/security-configuration-in-policy-manager/tasks-menu-security-options/manage-private-keys/import-a-private-key

    To import a certificate, you use Import a Certificate feature
    https://docops.ca.com/ca-api-gateway/9-4/en/security-configuration-in-policy-manager/tasks-menu-security-options/manage-certificates/import-a-certificate

    Private keys and certificates are different things used to different purposes. 
    The use for one or another will depend on what are you trying to accomplish.
