Deleting a Certificate
The procedure in this section deletes a certificate from the certificate
database. Please note the following before performing this procedure:
ˆ Deleting a certificate from the database does not delete it from the
switch. It continues to reside in the AT-S63 file system. To completely
remove a certificate from the switch, you must also delete it from the
file system. For instructions, refer to “Copying a System File” on
page 213.
ˆ You cannot delete a certificate from the database if you specified its
corresponding encryption key as the active key in the web server
configuration. The switch will consider the certificate as in use and will
not allow you to delete it. You must first configure the web server with
another encryption key pair for a different certificate. For instructions,
refer to “Configuring the Web Server” on page 757.
This procedure starts from the X509 Certificate Management menu. If you
are unsure how to access the menu, perform steps 1 to 4 in the procedure
“Adding a Certificate to the Database” on page 801.
