Error in creating self-signed certficate

Hi F5,

 

I am creating a self-signed certificate and it says that "Some fields below contain errors. Correct them before continuing."

My bos is i5800 running on BIG-IP 14.1.2.6 Build 0.0.2 Point Release 6.

 

Thanks.

  • Hello Redux_Php.

     

    Without knowing what you have filled in the text fields is difficult to figure out what errors describe this message.

    Most likely, you are using some not allowed character.

     

    Anyway, take into account that the self-certificate could be created externaly (or in the F5 bash interface).

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10175812/how-to-generate-a-self-signed-ssl-certificate-using-openssl

    And import it into the F5 after that.

     

    Import Cert --> https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K14620#3

    Import Key --> https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K14620#4

     

    Regards,

    Dario.
