10.5 Managing Certificates and Private Keys

Since certificates are required for most of the supported EAP protocols it will be
necessary to upload these files to the Airborne Device Server before attempting
to configure the device for WPA2-Enterprise security.

The Airborne Device Server supports both pushing and pulling of certificates and
private key files to the device, utilizing FTP and Xmodem transfer protocols. The
different methods can be seen in Figure 7.

The CLI commands that manage the delivery process are described in Table 11.

Table 11 - Certificate Delivery Commands

Command

Description

put-cert [file name]

Will cause the device server that you are going to push the
certificate to, to wait for the attached host to initiate the
Xmodem transfer to the module. This method supports
Xmodem transfer over the serial interface or in a telnet session.

The filename included as the argument will be the name the file
is saved with on the device server. This name is the one to be
referenced when a certificate is called.

No file path should be included.

An extension must be included.

Once the command is issued the device server waits for the
attached host to initiate an Xmodem transfer. Once the transfer
of the file is complete the command returns an OK.

Once the download is complete it is necessary for the save
command to be issued, this will cause the certificate to be
stored to the device server.
