Import a Certificate

A10 Control uses SSL certs and private keys to create proxied signed certificates for handshaking with SSL clients. SSL certs are self-signed by a private organization acting as their own Certificate Authority (CA). The organization configures its SSL clients to accept its CA.

To import a certificate:

1. Navigate to Certificates > Manage Certificates.
2. On the Certificates, click + Import.

3. On the Import Certificate page, enter the following details:
