WLC 5508-UC Certificate.

[Prasan Venky]

Hello All,

Does UC certificate is supported in cisco WLC 5508..?

[Scott Fella]

What is UC? If your talking about
Unchained then yes, but since last year, certificate vendors moved to 2048 which doesn't allow for unchained certificates anymore.

What is the cert for and what root CA will be generating the cert?

I think this will be used in a voice environment (CUCM stuff)...   But whether its possible for WLC to use it..?

[Scott Fella]

What are you using the cert for? If you don't want to get a cert error, then you need to use a trusted root ca provider. A UC cert will not be trusted unless you push out the root ca to all devices.

Actually we need certificates for the below reasons

1) Webauthentication (Third Party/ CA)

2) WLC Management/GUI Access(Not sure whether its possible ?)

Kindly suggest

Use a 3rd party certificate for sure for WebAuth.

You can always upload a certificate for management, since its internal, you just need toile sure your UC root ca is trusted by the client machines.
