Generating a certificate request<br />

The <strong>FortiGate</strong> unit generates a certificate request based on the information you<br />

enter to identify the <strong>FortiGate</strong> unit. Generated requests are displayed in the Local<br />

Certificates list with a status of PENDING. After you generate a certificate request,<br />

you can download the request to a <strong>com</strong>puter that has management access to the<br />

<strong>FortiGate</strong> unit and then forward the request to a CA.<br />

To fill out a certificate request, go to VPN > Certificates > Local Certificates and<br />

select Generate. To download and send the certificate request to a CA, see<br />

“Downloading and submitting a certificate request” on page 372.<br />
