also periodically check your CA’s Certificate Revocation List, as described in “Managing your
Certificate Revocation List (CRL)” on page 6-13.
Managing your Certificate Revocation List (CRL)
A CRL (Certificate Revocation List) file shows certificates that have been revoked and are no
longer valid. Each CA issues their own CRLs. It is important that you keep your CRLs up-to-date.
You should obtain the CRL for each CA regularly.
In the Certificates menu, you can view your currently-loaded CRLs and upload a new CRL.
To view your currently-loaded CRLs and upload a new CRL, follow these steps:
1. Select VPN > Certificates from the main menu.
The Certificates menu will display showing the Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) table at
the bottom of the screen.
