LABEL DESCRIPTION
PKI Storage Space
in Use
This bar displays the percentage of the Zyxel Device’s PKI storage space that is currently in
use. When the storage space is almost full, you should consider deleting expired or
unnecessary certificates before adding more certificates.
Add Click this to go to the screen where you can have the Zyxel Device generate a certificate or
a certification request.
Edit Double-click an entry or select it and click Edit to open a screen with an in-depth list of
information about the certificate.
Remove The Zyxel Device keeps all of your certificates unless you specifically delete them. Uploading
a new firmware or default configuration file does not delete your certificates. To remove an
entry, select it and click Remove. The Zyxel Device confirms you want to remove it before
doing so. Subsequent certificates move up by one when you take this action.
References You cannot delete certificates that any of the Zyxel Device’s features are configured to use.
Select an entry and click References to open a screen that shows which settings use the
entry.
