CLI Operation

Use the following command to delete a local certificate:

Specify a certificate ID to delete a local certificate with a specific ID, use all to delete all local certificates, or specify system-generated to delete the automatically generated self-signed certificate.

When you delete an automatically generated self-signed certificate, the device generates a new one.

To delete a CA certificate:

Specify a CA profile to delete a specific CA certificate, or use all to delete all CA certificates present in the persistent store.

Note: You are asked for confirmation before a CA certificate can be deleted.
