Choose client certificate

If a client certificate has already been sent to the server, it will be displayed.

If the certificate is stored on your system or in a file accessible using a URL:

  1. Click PKSC12 or PFX file. Type the URL or path and filename of the certificate that you want to send or click Browse to locate the file on the local file system. Sending and receiving files through URLs depends on the protocols your browser supports. Most browsers support HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and FTPS.
  2. Type the password that was used to encrypt the certificate. If you do not know the password, ask your administrator or the person who requested and received your certificate.
  3. Click View Certificate to see detailed information about the certificate you are sending. You must enter the location and password for the certificate before you can view it.
If your certificate is accessible through the Microsoft Internet Explorer Personal Certificate store:
  1. Click Certificate in MSIE browser or security device, and select it from the Certificate Name list. Optionally, you can choose to send any certificate trusted by the server.
  2. Click View Certificate to see detailed information about the certificate.
Setup
Opens the Cryptographic Support Setup dialog where you can specify parameters for using a smart card for client authentication on Linux (32-bit Intel platform) in Host On-Demand.  This button is accessible on all platforms so that the Administrator can setup the cryptographic module name for the user to use on Linux client, however, the user must provide the password when connecting to the cryptographic token.
For Host On-Demand to work with smart cards on Linux, in addition to installing the smart card drivers and PKCS11 library for the driver; you also need to download the PKS11 library from the HODMain page and setup LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include the directory where the shared libraries reside.
This button is only available when the Browser or security device option is selected as the Certificate Source.
