Importing user certificates with private keys (two files)

You can import a user certificate and private key separately.

  1. In the web UI, go to Administration > Certificate Management > Certificates. In the native UI, go to Tools > Certificate Manager or click the Certificates button in the tool bar.
  2. Right-click the Users store in the tree pane and select Import > User Certificate and Private Key...
  3. Enter a new user alias.
  4. Enter the password of the private key being imported. If the private key is unprotected (does not have a password), enter the desired password and select Add password to unprotected key.
  5. Select Certificate file and Private Key file.
  6. Enter or browse for the certificate filename and the private key filename. The certificate file extension does not matter. The Certificate Manager will determine automatically whether just one certificate (CER/DER) or a certificate chain (P7B) is included.
  7. Click Import to import the user certificate (possibly with chain) and the private key.
