Certificate and CA Configuration Page

Certificates identify one entity to another. In this case, when making SSL connections between a client

application and the KMS Server, the server must provide its server certificate to the client application.

Likewise, if you require client applications to validate themselves to the KMS Server via client certificates,

then the client application must provide its client certificate to the server during the SSL handshake.
The KMS uses the following two kinds of certificates:

Server certificates on the SKM allow an SKM to authenticate itself to a client application during

an SSL handshake.

Client certificates allow client applications to authenticate themselves to the SKM during an SSL

handshake. Where the certificate resides varies from application to application and database to

database.
