34 Postinstallation
Whether you select a commercial Certificate Authority (CA) or build your
own CA Server, you must provide the following information to enroll:
first and last name of the certificate administrator
e-mail address of the certificate administrator
any other information requested by the CA
ATTENTION
Nortel strongly recommends that you create an e-mail alias for the certificate
administrator. The CA sends renewal notifications and other important
information to this e-mail address. If the administrative responsibilities are
shared, any administrator can access the notifications.
For additional information about commercial Certificate Authorities, go to
any one of the following company Web sites:
VeriSign
Entrust
CACert
RapidSSL
For additional information about building your own CA server with
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007, go to the Microsoft Web site at
h
ttp://www.microsoft.com. Search on the key words build a certificate
authority.
Certificate Signing Request generation
A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is the unique fingerprint of the server
and includes your private and public key pair. You need a CSR to enroll
for a TLS certificate.
Procedure 5 “Generating a CSR” (page 35) describes the steps to
generate a CSR by using Java keytool and sample directories. In this
procedure, you use Java keytool, which is the recommended method. You
can use another tool to generate a CSR if your environment requires that
you do so.
For more information about Java keytool, go to h
ttp://java.sun.com/ and
search on the keyword keytool.
