Configuring Certificates on the MDS Switch
Vegas-1(config)# crypto ca trustpoint myCA
Vegas-1(config-trustpoint)# exit
Vegas-1(config)# do show crypto ca trustpoints
trustpoint: myCA; key:
revokation methods: crl
Vegas-1(config)#
Step 4
Create an RSA key-pair for the switch.
Vegas-1(config)# crypto key generate rsa label myKey exportable modulus 1024
Vegas-1(config)# do show crypto key mypubkey rsa
key label: myKey
key size: 1024
exportable: yes
Vegas-1(config)#
Step 5
Associate the RSA key-pair to the trust point.
Vegas-1(config)# crypto ca trustpoint myCA
Vegas-1(config-trustpoint)# rsakeypair myKey
Vegas-1(config-trustpoint)# exit
Vegas-1(config)# do show crypto ca trustpoints
trustpoint: myCA; key: myKey
revokation methods: crl
Vegas-1(config)#
Step 6
Download the CA certificate from the Microsoft Certificate Service web interface (see
Certificate, on page
Step 7
Authenticate the CA that you want to enroll to the trust point.
Vegas-1(config)# crypto ca authenticate myCA
