NOTE

When the CA certificate has some text before the actual .PEM format of the certificate begins, the
upload to the Brocade Virtual ADX will fail. To ensure the certificate gets uploaded, remove any text
portion prior to the certificate start

----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----.

Syntax: ssl gencsr key-name

The key-name variable is the key name that you want to use for the certificate request.

Exporting web server certificates

You can export a web server certificate from a web server and install it on a Brocade Virtual ADX.
This section describes the procedures required to export web server certificates from a Windows
Internet Information server (IIS), or and Apache server (UNIX).

Windows IIS
To export an existing Web server certificate to install on a Brocade Virtual ADX, follow these steps:

1. In the Run dialog box, type mmc, and click OK. The Microsoft Management Console (MMC)

appears.

2. If you do not have Certificate Manager installed in MMC, you need to install it. For more

information on how to add the certificate snap-in to an MMC console, see the Microsoft link:
Install a Server Certificate.

3. In the console tree, click the logical store where the certificate you want to export exists. It is

usually in the Certificates folder in the Personal directory under Certificates (local computer)
on the console root.

4. Right-click the certificate you want to export and click All Tasks > Export to start the Certificate

Export Wizard.

5. Click Next.

6. On Export Private Key, click Yes to export the private key.

You must export the private key with your certificate for it to be valid on your target server.
Otherwise, you must request a new certificate for the target server.
