Can not check Forward Trust Certificate

[Register_Security]

Hi All,

My device is PANOS 6.0.5;

I have a problem with Certificate configuration.

On my device, I generate a Certificate follow How to Generate a CSR(Certificate Signing Request) and Import the Signed Certificate;

After, my 3rd party CA issue complete, I import the issued certificate (crt file) successfully and status is "valid"

I can check "Certificate for Secure Web GUI" but I can not check "Forward Trust Certificate" option.

I really don't know where is my problem, please help

Thanks,

Hello,

Are you looking to use the certificate for SSL decryption? is the CA checkbox checked or unchecked (if unchecked, you wouldn't be able to check Forward Trust Certificate option) Usually the certificates signed by third party public CAs are not CA certificates. If the certificate is to be used for SSL decryption, then you can either use a self-signed certificate generated on the PA firewall or a subordinate CA. Please refer PAN SSL Certificates

Thank you

Yeah, I want to use SSL decryption, how can I get subordinate CA ?

Hi Jahnavi,

On my device, I generate my certificate with Extenal Authority CSR, after 3 parthy issue the certificate.

I edit an CRT file:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

Root CA

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

Intermediate

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

issued certificate

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

I import in to PAN successfully, I can check "Forward Trust Certificate", when I run "commit", the PAN inform "Unmatch certificate and key".

Have you experience for this problem, please share for me.

Thanks in advance,
