Usage Guidelines

The parameters of a PKI entity include the identity information of the PKI entity. The CA identifies a certificate applicant based on identity information provided by a PKI entity. To facilitate applicant identification, configure an IP address for the PKI entity, which is used as an alias of the PKI entity.

After an IP address is configured for a PKI entity, the certificate request packet sent by the device to the CA server carries this IP address. After receiving the certificate request packet, the CA server verifies the packet. For each valid packet, the CA server generates a digital certificate carrying the device IP address.

Example

# Set the IP address for a PKI entity to 10.1.1.1.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] pki entity entity1
[sysname-pki-entity-entity1] ip-address 10.1.1.1
