Configuration Guidelines; Configuration Procedure - HP 3600 v2 Series Configuration Manual

needs to query the status of the request periodically to get the certificate as soon as possible after
the certificate is signed. You can configure the polling interval and count to query the request status.
IP address of the LDAP server—An LDAP server is usually deployed to store certificates and CRLs.
•
If this is the case, you must configure the IP address of the LDAP server.
Fingerprint for root certificate verification—After receiving the root certificate of the CA, an entity
•
needs to verify the fingerprint of the root certificate, namely, the hash value of the root certificate
content. This hash value is unique to every certificate. If the fingerprint of the root certificate does not
match the one configured for the PKI domain, the entity will reject the root certificate.

Configuration guidelines

Up to two PKI domains can be created on a switch.
•
• The CA name is required only when you retrieve a CA certificate. It is not used when in local
certificate request.
The certificate request URL does not support domain name resolution.
