Enrolling and Managing Certificates

This chapter describes how to enroll and manage digital certificates for the VPN Client for Mac OS X,

specifically how to perform the following tasks:

• Obtain personal certificates through enrollment with a certificate authority (CA), which is an

organization that issues digital certificates that verify that you are who you say you are.

• Manage certificates and enrollment requests

• Import, export, view, and verify certificates

To get started with certificates, open the Certificates tab on the main VPN Client window in advanced

mode. The Certificates tab lists the certificates you currently have enrolled. If there are no certificates

showing, you need to enroll with a CA or contact your system administrator.

Using the Certificate Store

The VPN Client uses the notion of store to convey a location in your local file system for storing personal

certificates. The main store for the VPN Client is the Cisco store, which contains certificates enrolled

through the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP), and certificates that have been imported

from a file.

The Certificates tab on the main VPN Client window displays the list of certificates in your certificate

store (Figure 6-1).
