Generating a Certificate Signing Request

If you do not have an existing SSL certificate, you must create a certificate signing request (CSR) file and send it to a certificate authority (CA) to purchase an SSL certificate.

The RUCKUS Unleashed web interface provides a form that you can use to create the CSR file. Fields with an asterisk (*) are required entries. Those without an asterisk are optional.

From the main menu, select Administration > Certificate > Generate a Certificate to perform the following actions:

  • Generate a certificate signing request.
  • Import a signed certificate.
  • View the currently installed certificate.
  • Add a trusted CA.
  • Restore the default private key and certificate.
  • Back up private key and certificate information.
  • Generate a new private key.
