Has anyone succeeded in installing a SSL certificate from DigiCert on a SA540 router?

The SSL certifcate is a wildcard variant (*.example.com).

Hello Mr. ivar,

In order to get a new SSL certificate please follow the next instructions:

STEP 1 : Click Administration > Authentication.

The Authentication (Certificates) window opens.

STEP 2 For each type of certificate, perform the following actions, as needed:

• To add a certificate, click Upload. You can upload the certificate from the PC or the USB device. Click Browse, find and select the certificate, and then

click Upload.

• To delete a certificate, check the box to select the certificate, and then click

Delete.

• To download the router’s certificate (.pem file), click the Download button under the Download Settings area.

STEP 3 To request a certificate from the CA, click Generate CSR.

The Generate Certification Signing Request window opens.

a. Enter the distinguished name information in the Generate Self Certificate

Request fields.

• Name: Unique name used to identify a certificate.

• Subject: Name of the certificate holder (owner). The subject field populates the CN (Common Name) entry of the generated certificate and can contain these fields:

- CN=Common Name

- O=Organization

- OU=Organizational unit

- L= Locality

- ST= State

- C=Country

For example: CN=router1, OU=my_dept, O=my_company, L=SFO, C=US

Whatever  name you choose will appear in the subject line of the generated CSR.  To include more than one subject field, enter each subject separated by a  comma. For example: CN=hostname.domain.com, ST=CA, C=USA

• Hash Algorithm: Algorithm used by the certificate. Choose between MD5 and SHA-1

•Signature Algorithm: Algorithm (RSA) used to sign the certificate.

• Signature Key Length: Length of the signature, either 512 or 1024.

• (Optional) IP Address, Domain Name, and Email Address

b. Click Generate.

A  new certificate request is created and added to the Certification  Signing Request (CSR) table. To view the request, click the View button  next to the certificate you just created.
