User Guidelines
Use this command to export a certificate request to a Certification
Authority. The certificate request is generated in Base64-encoded X.509
format.
Before generating a certificate request you must first generate a
self-signed certificate using the crypto certificate generate Global
Configuration mode command. Be aware that you have to reenter the
certificate fields.
After receiving the certificate from the Certification Authority, use the
crypto certificate import Global Configuration mode command to
import the certificate into the device. This certificate replaces the
self-signed certificate.
