<div><div class="section"><p>When users access a server that provides a Secure Sockets Layer
|
|
(SSL) connection, the server presents a certificate to the user's client software
|
|
as proof of its identity. The client software must then validate the server's
|
|
certificate before the server can establish the session. To validate the server
|
|
certificate, the client software must have access to a locally stored copy
|
|
of the certificate for the Certificate Authority (CA) that issued the server
|
|
certificate. If the server presents a certificate from a public Internet CA,
|
|
the user's browser or other client software must already have a copy of the
|
|
CA certificate. If, as in this scenario, the server presents a certificate
|
|
from a private Local CA, each user must use Digital Certificate Manager (DCM)
|
|
to install a copy of the Local CA certificate. </p>
|
|
<p>Each user (Clients B,
|
|
C, and D) must complete these steps to obtain a copy of a Local CA certificate: </p>
