Description

Public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates are certificates with visibility external to organizational systems and certificates related to the internal operations of systems, such as application-specific time services. In cryptographic systems with a hierarchical structure, a trust anchor is an authoritative source (i.e., a certificate authority) for which trust is assumed and not derived. A root certificate for a PKI system is an example of a trust anchor. A trust store or certificate store maintains a list of trusted root certificates.

Fix Text (F-77844r1110799_fix)

To allow a client to communicate with another RUCKUS ICX device using an SSL connection, a set of digital certificates and RSA public-private key pairs must be configured on the device. A digital certificate is used to identify the connecting client to the server. The certificate contains information about the issuing Certificate Authority as well as a public key. Digital certificates and private keys can be imported from a server.

Copy the certificates from the server to flash memory and save the configuration.
