Destroying a Trusted Certificate (CLI)

Use this procedure to destroy a trusted certificate.

After an ASN-based certificate is destroyed, a new ASN-based certificate is generated automatically without restart of the appliance software.

  1. To view all certificate entries, go to the configuration settings certificates trusted context, and enter the list command.
  2. To destroy a certificate, use the following commands.
    hostname:configuration settings certificates system> destroy cert-001
    Caution: Destroying a certificate issued by a certificate authority also
    destroys the associated private key. Re-importing the certificate will not be possible.
