This process uses the VeriSign Interface for Certificate Enrollment
(VICE) protocol for requesting a certificate directly from VeriSign. Once
the button below is clicked you will be taken to a VeriSign site to enter all
necessary information to generate the certificate.
The basic steps of the request process are:
- Click "Ok" below to go to VeriSign's Certificate Request site
- Identify your organization location (U.S. or non-U.S.)
- Select the type of certificate you desire
- Enter the data necessary for the distinguished name (DN) of the certificate
- VeriSign will do a Dunn & Bradstreet check on the organization name and city that you enter for verification
- VeriSign will do a 'whois' lookup on your domain name for verification
- You will return to the administration server for generation of the certificate signing request (CSR)
- You will return to the VeriSign registration site to enter contact and billing information for the certificate
This is a two-step process. Once you have submitted your request for the
certificate you will need to wait until it is issued by VeriSign. Once it has
been issued you can use the Retrieve VeriSign Certificate function to retrieve
and install the certificate into your server.
