Security - Request Verisign

This page allows you to request a certificate from Verisign.

VeriSign is the preferred certificate authority (CA) of the Sun ONE Application Server. VeriSign's VICE protocol simplifies the certificate request process, plus VeriSign has the advantage of being able to return their certificates directly to your server.

The Administration Server can have only one server certificate, while a server instance can have its own server certificate. You can select a server instance certificate for each virtual server.

The following table describes the fields and buttons on the page. The left column lists the fields and buttons; the right column describes the functionality.

Field or Button Description
OK You are taken to the Verisign Enrollment Wizard. Enter your information as prompted by the wizard.
Reset Resets the values on the page to the default values.

After you have submitted your request, you will need to wait until the certificate is issued by VeriSign. When you receive the certificate, you can install it into the trust database of your server instance by selecting Security > Certificate Management > Install Verisign.
