Configuring an Entity Distinguished Name
A certificate is the combination of a public key and the identity information of an
entity, where the CA identifies a certificate applicant and the identity information
using an entity Distinguished Name (DN).
Enter the
pki-entity command to configure a PKI entity and enter PKI entity configuration sub-mode. In
this mode, you can configure other PKI parameters. The following example configures
the following parameters for the PKI entity ruckus-entity: common-name, country name,
state name, organization unit-name, organization name, email, and location. In addition,
parameters such as IP address, fully qualified domain name (FQDN), location, and subject-alternative-name
can be configured for the entity.
