Generated Certificate Not Showing

L1 Bithead

Running PAN OS 10.2.2-h2 and generated a certificate. The cert doesn't display in the gui under Device Certificates. I created it again and it said that there are duplicate certificates now. I am new to Palo and not sure how else I can go about viewing the certs that I generated or how to go about removing them.

 

Thank you

Hello @mjgrlg72

 

you can view certificates from the CLI by using below commands:

 

configure
show shared certificate

 

To remove certificate, you can use below command:

 

delete shared certificate <certificate name>
commit

 

Regarding how you ended up to not able to see a certificate in GUI, I am not sure what could have caused this. I do not see any known issue in the version you are running and have not faced this myself before.

 

Kind Regards

I reached out on some other boards also and I got responses back that others have/have been experiencing the same issue. Even using the show shared certificate command doesn't display anything. They are there though. I exported the firewall state and looked at the text file and saw both certs in there. Just not able to see them in the system.

I worked with the vendor that we purchased the palo through and have support with. They upgraded our system to 10.2.3-h2 to see if that would allow us to see the certs. The certs still didn't show. I tried generating a new cert and that one did show in the gui and cli. I still have the two certs that were originally generated still in there that I can't see other than through the state file, but I was able to generate a new file, export it and start playing around with ssl decryption. At some point I'll have to figure out how to get rid of the other two certs. I was surprised to see that it seems to be an issue others have had from what I have seen online, but nothing in any bug reports.

Hello @mjgrlg72,

 

Greetings from Palo Alto networks.

I saw your post and have a few recommendations for you. The cert doesn't display in the GUI under 'Device Certificates' because there were duplicate certs and this caused issues with the import device state, You have to delete the duplicate certs and it will work well! 

 

You can refer to the following articles to remove the duplicate certificate-
