CSR folder structure

You may create CSRs (Certificate Signing Requests), store them in, and import signed certificates (.pem files) from any folder on your Supervisor or engineering PC. The default location is a working folder in the user file space.

The first time you access the Certificate Management view from Workbench, the system creates an empty certManagement folder in the following location:

c:\Users\username\Niagara4.x\certManagement, where username is the name you use to log in to the computer.

In the Nav tree, this location is: My File System > User Home > certManagement.

This folder, in Workbench’s user space, is a working folder for storing CSRs and .pem files exported and imported by the Certificate Manager. Within this folder, you may create a structure for managing exports and imports or you may use a different location for exports and imports.

NOTE: Do not confuse the certManagement folder with the certificates folder that stores one or more certificates used to validate the authenticity of Niagara system licensing files. The certificates folder has nothing to do with secure communication.

The platform and station folders do not have a certManagement folder.
