OV2500, Stellar AP private Certificate

Post by PSOZ16 »

Hi Community,

I have an OV2500 Stellar Enterprise setup.

Now I have the requirement to authenticate the APs on the switch ports using 802.1x. I've already configured this using the default certificates that are already installed on the APs and the OV2500/UPAM.

Now I need to change the default certificates to my own, issued by the customer CA.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work to copy the certificate I created and imported from the OV2500 to the AP (via the AP group).

The following error message appears:
Set AP AS 802.1x Client Configuration,Failure,1xclient download cert [sftp://certificate4ap:switch@10.144.238.221:22/ap1x/tar/Stellar3.tar] fail

Has anyone already used this, and how was it done?

Unfortunately, I can't find any detailed instructions for it.

Thanks
ciao Paul

Thanks
Paul

I have tested the same some month ago successfully. Where do you see this error message? You need two separate files for the certificate:
the certificate and the private key for it (.key). Test it first without password - not encrypted key-file.
