Installing an SSL certificate for a CSS 11503

I'm having the hardest time searching for clear instructions on how to request and install an SSL certificate for a CSS 11503 Content Switch. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction?
I'm also looking for instructions on how to replace an SSL certificate once it's been installed. Thanks!

Allen,
The portion of the configuration guide related to SSL certificates and keys can be found here:
http://cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/contnetw/ps792/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00801eea82.html#1422544
To replace an SSL certificate, you'll need to remove the current certificate and re-import/create the new one.

  • ACS Not installing renewed SSL Certificate for PEAP/EAP-TLS?

    We recently renewed our SSL certificate through RapidSSL. While attempting to install the new certificate into ACS, I was given the prompt to showing the updated dates, confirmed and installed the new certificate, deleting the old. I restarted ACS, as required, but when trying to enable PEAP or EAP-TLS, I am getting the error "Failed to initialize PEAP or EAP-TLS authentication protocol because ACS certificate is not installed."
    The worst part, is that I when I tried to reinstall the old certificate, I am now getting the same problem.
    Any suggestions?

    Matt,
    How did you perform the CSR.... did you use ACS or OpenSSL? Also, did you verify that the certificate is in the trusted personal folder on the server?

  • Installing Valid SSL Certificate for Agent Reskilling Tool

    Has anyone done this?  I'm looking for documentation and can't find anything.  There's documentation for UCM/CUIC, but nothing for agent reskilling.  The Cisco Security Best Practices seems to just gloss over this subject and not really provide any good data.

    Hi David, I recently tried to do this and I think I figured out a solution. This is on ICM 8.5(4). Let me know if this works for you.
    Open SSL Encryption Utility. Select All Instances. Click Certificate Administration tab. Click Uninstall. Close SSL Encryption Utility.
    Create Certificate request in IIS Manager.
    Complete Certificate request in IIS Manager.
    Export Certificate in IIS to c:\icm\ssl\[yourfile.pfx]. Remember password you use.
    Open command prompt
    Cd c:\icm\ssl\bin
    Openssl.exe
    pkcs12 -in c:\icm\ssl\[yourfile.pfx] -nocerts -out keyfile-encrypted.key
    pkcs12 -in c:\icm\ssl\[yourfile.pfx] -clcerts -nokeys -out [host.crt]
    Exit
    Copy c:\icm\ssl\bin\host.crt   to   c:\icm\ssl (overwrite if necessary)
    Copy c:\icm\ssl\bin\keyfile-encrypted.key   to   c:\icm\ssl (overwrite if necessary)
    Open SSL Encryption Utility. Select All Instances. Click Certificate Administration tab. Click Install. Click no when it asks to create a new certificate. Close SSL Encryption Utility. I got one error but certificate imported successfully.

  • Installing a SSL certificate for WebVPN

    We purchased a SSL certficate from network solutions to interface with our webvpn connections. This is what they sent us:
    AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt
    NetworkSolutions_CA.crt
    UTNAddTrustServer_CA.crt
    WEBVPN.MYSITE.COM.crt (name changed to protect privacy)
    I've had absolutely no luck getting the identity certificate installed, and I have no idea what the other certs are really used for.
    Try #1:
    I figured that using the ASDM was easier to deal with certs so I navigated to the identity certificates section. I tried to import an identity certificate from a file by browsing to the identity certificate and click add certificate. But it stops me and says "Passphrase cannot be empty." I talked to network solutions and they don't have a passphrase for me. So then I just make up anything and click Add Certificate but I get stopped with this error: ERROR: Import PKCS12 operation failed.
    Try #2:
    At the identity certificates page in ASDM I clicked Add and then tried to add a new identity certificate by filling out all the parameters. This prompts me to save a CSR file to my computer. Ok done. But the certificate is not 'installed'.
         Try #2.1
         To get the certificate installed I tried clicking 'install' and browsing to WEBVPN.MYSITE.COM.crt. Upon hitting OK I get stopped with the following error: Cannot import certificate - Certificate does not contain device's General Purpose public key for trust point ASDM_TrustPoint1. ERROR: Failed to parse or verify imported certificate.
         Try #2.2
         I thought the CSR file is something important so I sent the CSR file to network solutions and they sent back a 'validation.xps' file. I tried to use this to 'install' into the identity certificate I just added. Unfortunately I get the following error when doing so: ERROR: Failed to parse or verify imported certificate.
    I called network solutions and tried to explain to them and they of course had no idea what I'm talking about.
    Is anyone familiar with this process that can point me in the right direction to install the cert?Thanks

    I know this is a really old question and our solution was pretty silly, but this is still one of the top results for "Passphrase cannot be empty."
    In our case, the cert we had purchased was not in PKCS12 format, but the regular PEM format.  You need to convert it using openssl:
    openssl pkcs12 -export -in prod_cert.pem -out prod_cert.pkcs12 -name "New Cert"
    It will ask you for a password, which you supply, then use that cert and password with the Cisco Cert import.
    They're one of the few appliances I have seen that don't accept unencrypted PEM files.
    Hope this is of use to someone else.

    SSL Certificate for cn=abc.com   considering abc.com as our major domain. now we have servers in this domain like    www.abc.com,   a.abc.com , b.abc.com etc. we installed the verisign certificate and configured ACE-20 accordingly for ssl-proxy and we will use same certificate gerated for abc.com for all servers like www.abc.com , a.abc.com , b.abc.com etc. Now when we are trying to access https//www..abc.com or https://a.abc.com through mozilla , we are able to access the service but we are getting this message in certfucate status " you are connected to abc.com which is run by unknown "
    And the same message when trying to access https://www.abc.com from Google Chrome.
    "This is probably not the site you are looking for! You attempted to reach www.abc.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as abc.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of adgate.kfu.edu.sa. You should not proceed"
    so i know as this certficate is for cn=abc.com that is why we are getting such errors/status in ssl certficate.
    Now my question is
    1. Is is possible to  remove above errors doing some ssl configuration on ACE?
    2. OR we have to go for VerisgnWildcard Secure Site Pro Certificate  for CSR generated uisng cn =abc.com to be installed on ACE  and will be used  for all servers like  www.abc.com , a.abc.com etc..
    Thanks
    Waliullah

    If you want to use the same VIP and port number for multiple FQDNs, then you will need to get a wildcard certificate.  Currently, if you enter www.abc.com in your browser, that is what the browser expects to see in the certificate.  And right now it won't beause your certificate is for abc.com.  You need a wildcard cert that will be for something like *.abc.com.
    Hope this helps,

  • How we can get SSL certificate for any site?

    i want to know how can get SSL certificate for any website and what is the main benefit for particular website with the help of this certificate.

    Hi,
    Would you please let me know edition information of the SBS server? Was it SBS 2008 or SBS 2011?
    Based on your description, I’m a little confused with your question. Did you mean that want to know why need
    SSL certificate for website?
    Certificate Services and SSL protect sensitive information by encrypting the data sent between client browsers
    and your server.
    An SSL Certificate is used for two reasons (1) to validate the remote server to the client before the client sends any data to that server (2) to encrypt the data between the client and server over an un-secure network (ie. the Internet). You can use
    a self-issued certificate or a third-party trusted certificate. For more details, please refer to following articles and check if can help you.

  • Changing SSL certificate for ICM

    Hello,
    I'd like to change SSL certificate for ICM service. I've change it in STRUST, but when I run web browser, server sends old one. IT is very odd, that ICM still works after deleteing all "SSL Server" certificates in STRUST. I tried to restart whole SAP system, but it did not help.
    Is there any possibility to change working certificate? What should I do to make such change?

    > I often use transaction SMICM -> Administration -> ICM -> Exit soft to restart only the ICM without interrupting the whole SAP system.
    > You should increase the ICM trace level, restart it and look at the trace file to try to find out what's wrong.
    OK, ICM runs properly now. I have no idea why, as I did not change anything. Maybe "soft restart" invoked few times helped.
    > Of course. In my company we use our own internal CA for intranet use and Verisign for internet use.
    > (for internet use the certificate in on the reverse proxy in the DMZ).
    Here I've got another problem.
    I've started with something simple. STRUST->SSL server->Create Certificate Request. My CA has signed this request. Now, when I'm trying to install signed certificate, I got an error "Cannot import certificate response".
    As my CA is not signed by any well known CA e.g. VeriSign), I've added my CAs certificate to SAP database (as root CA and server CA), butit did not help.
    In SSL server, I've got "(self signed)" below "own certif." field and I cannot change it
    If it's not a big problem, could you write down, what should I do to install external SSL certificate signed by not well-known CA.
    Many thanks for your help,
    regards,
    Konrad

  • Trouble installing Verisign SSL certificate

    I'm using WebLogic 7.0 and need to figure out how to install the SSL certificate.
    I've followed the instruction from both Verisign and BEA to install the certificate.
    But I could not get pass this error:
    ####<Oct 24, 2002 3:16:18 PM EDT> <Warning> <Security> <prodmvision02> <myserver>

    Curently I'm clueless on what has happened. This is the third time I tried to
    follow the instruction. Please help.

    Hello Patrick,
    Thanks for the information:
    you created a keypair for SSL in the Key Store service interface in the Visual Administrator, generated a CSR response and sent it to Verisign. Now you have the CSR response from Verisign - is my understanding of the situation correct?
    Absolutely right
    You can import this into the Key Store service, by highlighting the private key of the keypair and choosing 'Import CSR Response'. Now your key pair is signed.
    Successfully done.
    After this i can see that PRIVATE KEY (IssueDN has been changed to Verisign)
    But CERTIFICATE ISSUER DN is not changed.
    Now if i try to access the site with https, able to do properly and if click on the Lock icon on the browser, i can see certificate is 3 Chained
    Verisign Trial Secure Server Root CA - G2
    ----> Verisign Trial Secure Server CA - G2
    ----> -> Training.pearson.com (this is my Common Name)
    So it looks to be working fine.
    However there is no chain formed. You need to now follow the aforementioned note and export the private key and public key certificate separately by higlighting the private key and choosing 'Export'. Export with the 'Files of type' drop down box set to (*p8), and after exporting the private key you will be able to export the public key cert. This is step 6 and 7 of the note. Now follow steps 8-12 to form the chain
    No Chains has been made in Visual Admin, and i tried these on another server - it works as you are saying.
    But is there any benefit of importing Intermediate, Root Certificates - as mentioned in SAP note steps 8 to 12.
    If yes, then is it mandatory to make the chain till 3rd level (means Root Certificate also).
    Once the chain is loaded into the Key Store, you need to ensure that the Java dispatcher is configured to send the signed server certificate for the relevant SSL ports - see here http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/5c/15f73dd0408e5be10000000a114084/content.htm

  • SSL Certificates for J2EE Servers

    Please let us know if you have any insight.

    -> Configuring SSL on SAP J2EE
    A key pair is required for the SAP J2EE to use SSL. This key pair can be created from the Visual admin. But to use this, the public key should be certified by "any Certifying authority(CA)". This CA can depend on your choice. In case you opt for SAP CA, follow the instructions on http://service.sap.com/tcs

  • Installing 2 ssl certificate on one machine with two virtual hosts

    Hi,
    If you have a managed server in a cluster that has two virtual hosts running
    on it how can you intsall the ssl certificates for both virtual hosts, in
    the admin console.
    any help would be great!

    OK....I figured it out.
    I was able to set the IPV4 properties on the ones needing filtering to use the IP or OpenDNS as the primary DNS and my server address as the secondary and that works.
    I removed OpenDNS forwarder from the server, flushed dns on all machines and so far it's working perfectly.  The machines that are not going to be filtered just go through the server for DNS.
    Hopefully, after a while it doesn't break down!

    In order to use the chained certificates on the CSS, the server certificate and intermediate must be concatenated together. This allows the CSS to return the entire certificate chain to the client upon the initial SSL handshake. When the chained certificate file is created for the CSS, make sure the certificates are in the proper order. The server certificate must be first, then the intermediate certificate is used to sign the server certificate must be next. The power entry modules (PEM) format is not very strict, and the empty lines between keys or certificates do not matter.
    The entire contents of the mychainedrsacert.pem file are shown here with the server cert on the top, followed by the intermediate CA cert. If you need to add the root cert, it would go to the bottom.
