Replace a certificate

Use this page to specify two certificates: the first selected certificate is replaced by the second selected certificate. The replace function replaces all the old signer certificates in key stores that are managed throughout the cell with the new signer from the new certificate. The same level of trust that was established with the old certificate is maintained. All places the certificate's alias is referenced in the security configuration will be replaced with the certificate's alias. The alias could be referenced on a security object like the SSL configuration, the dynamic outbound endpoint SSL configuration and key set groups.

To view this administrative console page, click Security > SSL certificate and key management. Under Configuration settings, click Manage endpoint security configurations > {Inbound | Outbound} > ssl_configuration. Under Related items, click Key stores and certificates > key store . Under Additional Properties click Personal certificates. Select a personal certificate, then click the Replace button.
