Understanding MKA MACsec with EAP-TLS
Configuring Manual Enrollment
If your CA does not support SCEP or if a network connection between the router and CA is not possible.
Perform the following task to set up manual certificate enrollment:
Step 8
auto-enroll percent regenerate
Enables auto-enrollment, allowing the client to automatically request a
rollover certificate from the CA.
If auto-enrollment is not enabled, the client must be manually re-enrolled
in your PKI upon certificate expiration.
By default, only the Domain Name System (DNS) name of the device is
included in the certificate.
Use the percent argument to specify that a new certificate will be
requested after the percentage of the lifetime of the current certificate is
reached.
Use the regenerate keyword to generate a new key for the certificate even
if a named key already exists.
If the key-pair being rolled over is exportable, the new key pair will also
be exportable. The following comment will appear in the trustpoint
configuration to indicate whether the key pair is exportable: “! RSA key
pair associated with trustpoint is exportable.”
It is recommended that a new key pair be generated for security reasons.
Step 9
crypto pki authenticate name
Retrieves the CA certificate and authenticates it.
Step 10
exit
Exits Global Configuration mode.
Step 11
show crypto pki certificate
trustpoint name
Displays information about the certificate for the trust point.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
crypto pki trustpoint server name
Declares the trustpoint and a given name and enters ca-trustpoint
configuration mode.
Step 3
enrollment terminal
Specifies the manual cut-and-paste certificate enrollment method.
The certificate request will be displayed on the console terminal so that it
may be manually copied (or cut).
The pem keyword configures the trustpoint to generate PEM-formatted
certificate requests to the console terminal.
Step 4
rsakeypair label
Specifies which key pair to associate with the certificate.
Step 5
serial-number none
The none keyword specifies that a serial number will not be included in
the certificate request.
Step 6
ip-address none
The none keyword specifies that no IP address should be included in the
certificate request.
Step 7
revocation-check crl
Specifies CRL as the method to ensure that the certificate of a peer has not
been revoked.
