Create the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and Private Key files. To do this, you need to know the:
-
Two-letter country identifier of the installation (for example, US, GB)
-
State or area
-
Location (usually the city)
-
Name of your organization
-
Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) you want j5 to serve from. (This is used as the common name in the certificate.)
For example:
To generate a CSR file for j5.example.com.csr using the private key j5.example.com.key, our country (ZA), our state (Western Cape), and our location (Cape Town):
"C:\Program Files\j5\framework\bin\KeyManager.exe" create-csr j5.example.com.csr j5.example.com.key -c ZA -s "Western Cape" -l "Cape Town" -o "Hexagon j5 ZA" --fqdn "j5.example.com"
The –fqdn option (Fully Qualified Domain Name) defaults to the configured j5 Server Name, if it isn’t supplied in the command.
