Creating a Self-Signed SSL Certificate

Hello,

 

 

I am looking to create a self-signed SSL certificate through the iControl API's. I found this, http://devcentral.f5.com/Community/GroupDetails/tabid/1082223/asg/51/aft/1174144/showtab/groupforums/Default.aspx, but that is for certificates that have already been generated in the .pem format.

 

 

 

Any suggestions?

 

  • I'm not sure iControl supports creation of certs/keys. You could probably do this just as easily using openssl or some other library off of LTM and then importing the cert/key to LTM using iControl:

    iControl :: Management :: KeyCertificate :: certificate_import_from_pem

     

    iControl :: Management :: KeyCertificate :: key_import_from_pem
