Renewing an existing certificate

 

The certificate renewal process that Digital Certificate Manager (DCM) uses varies based on the type of Certificate Authority (CA) that issued the certificate.

You can renew a certificate with the local CA or with an Internet CA.

• Renewing a certificate from the local CA
  If you use the local CA to sign the renewed certificate, DCM uses the information that you provide to create a new certificate in the current certificate store and retains the previous certificate.

• Renewing a certificate from an Internet CA
  If you use a well-known, Internet CA to issue the certificate, you can handle the certificate renewal in two different ways.
