Trusted Certificate Authorities<br />

The Trusted Certificate Authorities section looks like this:<br />

This section provides the list of Trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs). Also provided<br />

is a list of known CAs, from which you can select CAs to include them in<br />

the list of trusted CAs. When including a CA in this list, you can configure it as<br />

trusted or not trusted.<br />

If a CA has been included in the list of trusted CAs as not trusted, certificates<br />

issued by it will be explicitly forbidden, i. e. will also not be trusted. This is<br />

indicated in status messages referring to a certificate.<br />

If a CA is not included in the list at all, certificates issued by it may be implicitly<br />

forbidden, which is also indicated in status messages.<br />

Note that besides this list, which is configured only for a particular policy, there<br />

is also the list of Global Trusted Certificate Authorities. If a CA does not appear<br />

in the list of trusted CAs configured here, the settings configured for the global<br />

list will apply.<br />

To select a CA from the list of known CAs and add it to the list of trusted CAs,<br />

use the area labeled:<br />

• Select CA<br />

Select the CA you want to add to the list of trusted CAs from the drop-down<br />

list provided here.<br />

If this list is empty, it means that all known CAs have been included in the<br />

list of trusted CAs, either as trusted or not trusted.<br />

The addition of a CA here will be valid only under the policy you are currently<br />

configuring.
