Configuring the root-CA

The following section describes how to set up a root CA on a WLC. These steps assume that the device has been reset, that you have commissioned the device in the standard manner, and that you have set the correct time.

  1. Login to your device via WEBconfig or the command line.
  2. Navigate to the menu Setup > Certificates > SCEP-CA > CA-Certificates. Customize the name of the certificate authority (CA) and the registration authority (RA) with the parameters CA-Distinguished-Name and RA-Distinguished-Name.

    Example: /CN=WLC-MAIN CA/O=LANCOM SYSTEMS/C=DE

  3. Navigate to the menu Setup > Certificates > SCEP-CA and set the parameter Operating to Yes.

You have now completed the configuration of the root CA. The command show ca cert on the command line allows you to verify that the WLC has created the certificate correctly.
