Import Local Certificate

A local certificate can only be imported if it has previously been fully exported, including the private key. Possible situations are the transfer of the certificate from the test system to the productive or standby system, the recovery of the local certificate after a system failure or the import of a key from OpenSSH.

Important note: You will never receive a local certificate from a communication partner. If so, it would be compromised and it must not be used. The following screenshot shows the dialogue for importing a local certificate. The certificate is either copied into the text field in the PEM format or dragged directly into the dialogue as a CER file. If necessary, a password can also be entered during the import.
