Configuring IKEv1 Public Key Infrastructure Policies in Site-to-Site VPNs
You can create a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) policy to generate enrollment requests for CA
certificates and RSA keys, and to manage keys and certificates. Certification Authority (CA) servers are
used to manage these certificate requests and issue certificates to the participating devices in your VPN
topology.
In Security Manager, CA servers are predefined as PKI enrollment objects that you can use in your PKI
policies. A PKI enrollment object contains the server information and enrollment parameters that are
required for creating enrollment requests for CA certificates.
For more information about Public Key Infrastructure policies, see Understanding Public Key
Infrastructure Policies, page 25-47.
This procedure describes how to specify the CA server that will be used to create an IKEv1 Public Key
Infrastructure (PKI) policy in your VPN topology.
Tip For information on specifying CA servers for use in IKEv2 negotiations, see Configuring IKEv2
Authentication in Site-to-Site VPNs, page 25-62.
Before You Begin
For important information about successfully configuring PKI, see Requirements for Successful PKI
Enrollment, page 25-48.
