authenticate PIX to CA

by dvandenbosch . Updated 23 years, 3 months ago

I am in the process of setting a VPN utilizing a public key infrastructure. Since we have a Cisco PIX firewall, I’d like to set up internet key exchange between our remote users and the PIX.

One of the steps I must accomplish is get the PIX to obtain a certificate from my Windows 2000 Certificate Server. (I have one Enterprise Root CA).

Before I begin this step, Cisco documentation states that I must “contact your CA administrator because they must authenticate your PIX Firewall manually before granting its certificate(s).”

How does one “authenticate” a PIX firewall “manually” on a Windows 2000 certificate server?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
