> # Configuring Secure Connections Between the SAE and JUNOS Routing Platforms

> You can use TLS to protect communication between the SAE and JUNOS routing platforms.

> To complete the handshaking protocol for the TLS connection, the client (JUNOS routing platform) and the server (SAE) must exchange and verify certificates. You need to create a client certificate and a server certificate. Both certificates must be signed by a certificate authority (CA). JUNOS software supports VeriSign, Inc. (http://www.verisign.com). You must then install both certificates on the SAE and on the JUNOS routing platform.

> You can use the C-Web interface to manage certificates manually, or through the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP).

> Certificates are in the format defined in the X.509 standard for public key infrastructure. The certificate requests are in the Public Key Cryptology Standard (PKCS) #10 format.
