Requesting a CA Digital Certificate

For J-series Services Routers and AS and MultiServices PICs installed on M-series and T-series routing platforms, issue the following command to obtain a digital certificate from a CA. Specify a configured ca-profile-name to request a CA certificate from the trusted CA.

user@host>request security pki ca-certificate enroll ca-profile ca-profile-name

For information about how to configure a CA profile see, Configuring the Certificate Authority Properties.

In this example, the certificate is enrolled online and installed into the routing platform automatically.

user@host> request security pki ca-certificate enroll ca-profile entrust
