Install Verisign Certificate and intermediate CA in R62CM w/out admin.GUI

[armando.ferreira]

Anyone knows how to install a Verisign cert in PEM format and also intermediate Verisgin CA in Smart Dashboard or by command line in Connectra Console?
I have sent my CSR to VeriSgin and I have just receive my portal certificate and now I dont know how-to. Can´t find any document with instruction for R62CM procedure.

Solved!
Just cut & paste everything including
---BEGIN CERTIFICATE---
through to
---END CERTIFICATE---
Cut & paste also the intermediate cert that came in the same email received from VeriSign.
The second part starts also with
---BEGIN CERTIFICATE---
and end with
---END CERTIFICATE---
into a new file called connectra.crt. The file will look like this
---BEGIN CERTIFICATE---
MII(your ssl certificate)
---END CERTIFICATE---
---BEGIN CERTIFICATE---
MII(intermediate cert)
---END CERTIFICATE---
Upload file to connectra and run $CVPNDIR/bin/InstallCert <certfile> <keyfile> '<passwd>' where your "keyfile" is the previous key generate with the CSR utility and "passwd" is the password used with the utility. Execute the cvpnrestart command Pages 129 to 131 from R62CM AdminGuide explains well the procedure (except the part that we have to concate your cert and the intermediate cert in one).

Thanks Tzeon.
One more thing that happened to me for the sake of future actions and no need to say but here it goes:
Keep your <certfile> and <keyfile> in a safe place and don't forget your <passwd>! If you need to reinstall Connectra as long as you keep the same Distinguish Name you can always reinstall ssl certificate with the above procedure.
