Example: Importing and exporting certificates
Network configuration
As shown in Figure 109, Device B will replace Device A in the network. PKI domain exportdomain on Device A has two local certificates containing the private key and one CA certificate. To make sure the certificates are still valid after Device B replaces Device A, copy the certificates on Device A to Device B as follows:
Export the certificates in PKI domain exportdomain on Device A to .pem certificate files.
During the export, encrypt the private key in the local certificates using 3DES_CBC with the password 11111.
Transfer the certificate files from Device A to Device B through the FTP host.
Import the certificate files to PKI domain importdomain on Device B.
Figure 109: Network diagram
Procedure
Export the certificates on Device A:
# Export the CA certificate to a .pem file.
<DeviceA> system-view [DeviceA] pki export domain exportdomain pem ca filename pkicachain.pem
# Export the local certificate to a file named pkilocal.pem in PEM format, and use 3DES_CBC to encrypt the private key with the password 111111.
[DeviceA] pki export domain exportdomain pem local 3des-cbc 111111 filename pkilocal.pem
Now, Device A has three certificate files in PEM format:
A CA certificate file named pkicachain.pem.
A local certificate file named pkilocal.pem-signature, which contains the private key for signature.
A local certificate file named pkilocal.pem-encryption, which contains the private key for encryption.
# Display local certificate file pkilocal.pem-signature.
