After generating a certificate signing request (CSR), you need to order the certificate from the CA using a CSR.
Go to the Certificate Authority’s web site and order your certificate.
Provide the CSR as requested by the CA. Provide other information if requested by the CA.
You will receive your certificate from the CA. Save it in a file. Include the "BEGIN CERTIFICATE" and "END CERTIFICATE" lines with the certificate in the file.
The following example omits the actual certificate data.
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- The certificate contents... ----END CERTIFICATE----- |
