Create backups of the certificates

To restore the CA or RA, the corresponding root certificates with private keys will be required as were generated automatically when the LANCOM WLAN controller was started. Furthermore the following files with information on issued device certificates should also be backed up. To ensure that this confidential information remains protected even when exported from the device, it is initially stored to a password-protected PCKS12 container.

  1. Open the configuration of the LANCOM WLAN controller in WEBconfig and go to LCOS Menu Tree > Setup > Certificates > SCEP-CA > CA-certificates.
  2. Select the command Create PKCS12 backup files and enter the passphrase for the PKCS12 container as the additional argument.




This command backs up the certificates and private keys to the PKCS12 files and these can then be downloaded from the device.
