  • 1.  CM Cert Issue

    Posted 02-06-2020 06:40 AM
    Good Morning, 

    I need help in configuring a certificate for CM. I just deployed SM and ASM 8 and run the initTM -f to pull the new CA from ASM which is showing to be 2048 key and SHA2. However once I did this my SIP TLS signal group between CM and SM is down.

    I know it has to be a cert issue but I have no idea how to resolve it. I am hoping there is someone on here that is an expert when it comes to this stuff. I have never dealt with certificates.

    Thank you  so much

    You'll need to, at a minimum, import the SMGR root CA into CM (via CM's web interface).  I don't have the guide in front of me so let me know if you can't figure out the steps.

    Just doing the root CA might not be enough if Session Manager doesn't trust the identity cert that CM is using.  If that's the case, you can either figure out what CA signed CM's current cert and add that to Session Manager's trust store, OR generate a new identity cert from SMGR for CM to use.  Switching CM's identity cert isn't hard but it also means getting one for AES to use too.
