SAP Web Application Server 6.10+

You must generate an individual certificate request for each application server that uses a server specific PSE. If you use a system-wide SSL server PSE, then you only need to generate a single certificate request.

To determine each unique SSL server PSE, expand the SSL server PSE node in the Trust manager and select each application server with a double click. The server's Distinguished Name appears in the own certificate field. For each application server with a unique Distinguished Name, you must generate a certificate request.

Procedure

From the Trust Manager screen:

  1. Expand the SSL server PSE node.
  2. For each unique SSL server PSE (each server-specific PSE or a single system-wide PSE):
    1. Select the application server. The application server's certificate appears in the PSE maintenance section in the Own certificate field.
    2. In the PSE maintenance section, choose Create Certificate Request. A dialog appears showing the certificate request.
    3. Select the content of the request and copy it to your clipboard (Copy) or save the certificate request to a file (<file name>.P10) using Save as local file.

SSL Certificates

Entrust SSL certificates inspire consumer trust by signifying a Web site's commitment to protecting the personal information of its visitors. By using SSL, companies help ease the security concerns of its customers, leading to a more engaging online experience. An SSL certificate is used to confirm that an SSL encryption algorithm is actively securing data being transmitted to a Web site. Digital certificates usually contain the SSL subscriber's information, the name of the certificate issuer, and the strength of the encryption in use. In addition to the "padlock" icon displayed in Web browsers and the https:// prefix, the SSL certificate is one more indicator customers look for as evidence that a Web site is serious about protecting their information.
