<div><p>Review this information to learn how your users can

use the Local CA to issue a certificate for client authentication.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>If you want to use digital certificates for user authentication,
|
|
users must have certificates. If you use Digital Certificate Manager (DCM)
|
|
to operate a private Local Certificate Authority (CA), you can use the Local
|
|
CA to issue certificates to each user. Each user must access DCM to obtain
|
|
a certificate by using the <span class="uicontrol">Create Certificate</span> task.
|
|
In order to obtain a certificate from the Local CA, the CA policy must allow
|
|
the CA to issue user certificates. </p>
|
|
<p>To obtain a certificate from the
|
|
Local CA, complete these steps:</p>

you through this process. Follow the browser's instructions for these tasks.

After the browser generates the keys, a confirmation page displays to indicate

the user can use DCM to assign the certificate to their user profile.</p>
