Collection certificate store collection

Use this page to view a list of certificate stores that contains untrusted, intermediary certificate files awaiting validation. Validation might consist of checking to see if the certificate is on a certificate revocation list (CRL), checking that the certificate is not expired, and checking that the certificate is issued by a trusted signer.

The following list provides recommendations for using CRLs:

• If CRLs are added to the collection certificate store collection, add the CRLs for the root certificate authority and each intermediate certificate, if applicable. When the CRL is in the certificate collection store, the certificate revocation status for every certificate in the chain is checked against the CRL of the issuer.

• When the CRL file is updated, the new CRL does not take effect until you restart the web service application.
• Before a CRL expires, load a new CRL into the certificate collection store to replace the old CRL. An expired CRL in the collection certificate store results in a certificate path (CertPath) build failure.
