End-User Certificate Enrolment
When end users need
a certificate for a server or application, they are directed to a customised
URL provided by their Managed PKI for SSL Administrator. The administrator
customises the pages to request the information they need for prompt
approval and issuance.
End-User Enrolment Instructions
- Go to the enrolment URL provided by the administrator.
- Click on Enrol.
- Paste your CSR into the text box when prompted.
- Complete all information fields.
- Click on Submit.
Your Managed PKI for SSL Administrator will issue
your certificate. VeriSign technical support does not have access to
this the account. Please contact the administrator for your company.
Correct Formatting
Do not use any shift
characters in any of the enrolment fields. If your company has an &
or @ symbol in its name, either spell out the symbol or omit it from
the enrolment field. An error 105 in CSR generation is usually caused
by a Control character such as @, #, $ or % in one of the enrolment
fields.
The locality is
the city or town. State or province names must be spelled out without
abbreviations: ‘California’, for example. Countries must be specified
by the two-letter country code without punctuation: US for the United
States, UK for United Kingdom.
Common Name
The Common Name
is the Host + Domain Name. It looks like ‘www.company.com’ or ‘company.com’.
VeriSign SSL Certificates
may only be used on Web servers using the Common Name specified during
enrolment. For example, a certificate for the domain ‘domain.com’ will
receive a warning if accessing a site named ‘www.domain.com’ or ‘secure.domain.com’,
because ‘www.domain.com’ and ‘secure.domain.com’ are different from
‘domain.com’.
