Not able to create X509 Certificate for a local APIC user

[abhishek.abhi]

Hi,

I have followed steps provided in following link to enable signature based transaction :

Cisco APIC Signature-Based Transactions - Cisco

While following steps to add User certificate using the GUI:

In the Work pane, in the User Certificates area, click the user certificates + sign, and in the Create X509 Certificate dialog box, perform the following actions:

1. In the Name field, enter a certificate name.
2. In the Data field, enter the user certificate details.
3. Click Submit.

I am getting error :

STATUS

Server Error:400 - Validation of x509 Certificate submitted failed - error returned by low level validation routine is : certificate is not yet valid

As also attached "AddingCertificateError.odt"

Hi Abhishek

I have run into the same error as well. Did you ever manage to resolve this or can you provide some information on what I need to do to get the certificate based authentication working.

Thanks

Hi Shruti

I was able to fix this. The problem is you may not be using the correct CA certificate in your certificate authority.

If you can open the cert file and check the cert, It should have a CA field in there.
