Openssl x509 -inform DER -outform PEM -in server.crt -out server.crt.pem For server.key, use openssl rsa in place of openssl x509. The server.key is likely your private key, and the.crt file is the returned, signed, x509 certificate. If this is for a Web server and you cannot specify loading a separate private and public key.
Zen Load Balancer is able to manage HTTPS connections (HTTP Profile), so the system administrator must to create their own certificates (self-signed certificates) or to acquire Signed Certificates by a Certificate Authority, in both cases the certificate must to be built in PEM format.
The Secure Certificate must be created without password and the keys and CSR must be generated in the server to be secured.
Positives SSL are ready to go in PEM format but Rapid SSL needs to be converted as each file contains the cert, the intermediate CA and the root CA separated.
The package openssl should be installed in order to generate the keys in the server, in our case will be the Zen Load Balancer instance which should be already installed.
First, generate the key without passphrase.
Then, generate the Certificate Signed Request (.csr) using the generated key (.key) as input.
Once the certificate and intermediate CA files are delivered, ensure to get the issuer root certificate.
It is simply a fingerprint of the given input. Chesum key generation in teradata.
All separated files need to be in PEM format: Server Certificate, Intermediate Certificate and Root CA Certificate. If it isn’t, convert the file with the following command:
Finally, we’ve the Private Key, the Certificate issued, the Intermediate Certificate and the Root CA Certificate. All these file contents should be combined to create the PEM file in UNIX format.
The PEM certificate must to be built with the following structure.
To create a correct PEM structure, it’s needed to concatenate the different file contents generated in the step above with the separations:
It’s mandatory to convert the PEM entire file in UNIX format.
It’s available the certificate named zencert.pem for testing purposes in order to be used with HTTPS profile farms.
