Cirrus
Cirrussha1 or sha256 default when creating csr
im going to use the webui to generate a san csr, but there is no indication on whether sha1 or sha256 will be used. the version im generating on is 12.1.1. is there a quick way to verify this, either in webui or through cli?
SHA-256 should be selected in the later versions such as yours. This will be represented by 2048 bits in the key section (near bottom when generating CSR.) After that your PKI authority should handle the rest.
