Chapter 10 Certificates

After you click Apply in the My Certificate Create screen, you see a screen that tells you the
ZyWALL is generating the self-signed certificate or certification request.

After the ZyWALL successfully enrolls a certificate or generates a certification request or a
self-signed certificate, you see a screen with a Return button that takes you back to the My
Certificates
screen.

If you configured the My Certificate Create screen to have the ZyWALL enroll a certificate
and the certificate enrollment is not successful, you see a screen with a Return button that
takes you back to the My Certificate Create screen. Click Return and check your
information in the My Certificate Create screen. Make sure that the certification authority
information is correct and that your Internet connection is working properly if you want the
ZyWALL to enroll a certificate online.

10.8 My Certificate Details
