Wildcard cert

StefanoColombo

I'm trying to use a wildcard certificate for admin and user portal

The XG firewall is running 17.5.0 GA

I've imported all the cert chain and the cert are marked green

 

However when trying to change the cert only the default from appliance is shown

what can it be ?

thanks

    Hi Stefano,

    What format did you upload the cert in and did you upload the private key?

    If you import a cert without the private key it can only be used for remote verification but to use it as part of the servers and webservers, you need the private key :)

    Hello Emile 

    I've imported the certificate in cer fomat , I don't remember having imported the private key in other installation just to use it as cert in user portal

    Hello Stefano,

    You require the private key in all scenatios where you need you apply digital signage and key encipherment which is the mainstay of TLS/HTTPS communications.

    You will need to reupload the certificate as a cer/pem/p7b with the key separately in the upload process or as a pkcs#12(pfx) which is the cert chain and private key together.

    Once you have done that you can use it in the webadmin.
