Signing CA Certificates are used to sign any new user certificate request created and also to verify tunnel certificates.


Though there can be multiple Verifying CA's , Only one Signing CA is allowed to be created, to create another Signing CA, delete the existing one.


The Tasks subsection allows a particular certificate to be either downloaded or deleted. The certificate can be downloaded as a PEM or as a p12(pkcs#12 file format) file.
