trustpoint

Configures a trustpoint and its associated information, such as the subject name, the sender‘s (device requesting certification) details, and the recipient's (CA) details. This information is needed to obtain the certificate from the CA server using CMP.

Each certificate is digitally signed by a CA and contains device-specific information, such as device name, IP address, serial number. It helps to uniquely identify a device.

Supported in the following platforms:
