Obtaining and installing a local certificate
There are two methods to obtain and install a local certificate:
• If you already have a signed server certificate (a backup certificate, a certificate exported
from other devices, and so on), you can import the certificate into the FortiVoice unit. For
details, see “Importing a certificate” on page 94.
• Generate a certificate signing request on the FortiVoice unit, get the request signed by a CA,
and import the signed certificate into the FortiVoice unit.
For the second method, follow these steps:
• Generating a certificate signing request
• Downloading a certificate signing request
• Submitting a certificate request to your CA for signing
• Importing a certificate
