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 command in Global Configuration mode in order to generate the 
keys. Make sure to re-enter values in the certificate fields.
After receiving the certificate from the Certification Authority, use the crypto certificate import 
command in Global Configuration mode to import the certificate into the switch. This 
certificate replaces the self-signed certificate.
