Root and client certificates

Root and client certificates are required to connect to KMIP servers and to ensure that the network access is good. You upload the certificates to the SVP.

To access the key management server, the client certificate must be current and not expired.

For details about the client certificate password in PKCS#12 format:

• Contact the key management server administrator.

• See Client certificate password.

To get copies of the root and client certificates, contact the key management server administrator.
