Certificates
The FortiManager unit generates a certificate request based on the information you entered to identify the FortiManager unit. After you generate a certificate request, you can download the request to a computer that has management access to the FortiManager unit and then forward the request to a CA.
Local certificates are issued for a specific server, or website. Generally they are very specific, and often for an internal enterprise network.
CA root certificates are similar to local certificates, however they apply to a broader range of addresses or to an entire company.
The CRL is a list of certificates that have been revoked and are no longer usable. This list includes certificates that have expired, been stolen, or otherwise compromised. If your certificate is on this list, it will not be accepted. CRLs are maintained by the CA that issues the certificates and includes the date and time when the next CRL will be issued as well as a sequence number to help ensure you have the most current version of the CRL.
Go to System Settings > Certificates to view FortiManager local certificates, CA certificates and CRLs.
