Upload Certificate

Note:

It is recommended to perform upload certificate configuration through the Adaptive Authentication portal’s user interface rather than directly on NetScaler® (using GUI or CLI). Changes made on NetScaler are not automatically synced with the Adaptive Authentication portal and might be lost.

  1. Add the Adaptive Authentication service FQDN and upload the certificate-key pair. You must enter the Adaptive Authentication service FQDN of your choice for the publicly accessible authentication server. This FQDN must be publicly resolvable.

    1. In the Upload Certificate screen, enter the FQDN that you’ve reserved for Adaptive Authentication.
    2. Select the certificate type.

      • Adaptive Authentication service supports certificates of type PFX, PEM, DER for provisioning of instances.
      • Certificate bundle is only supported for certificates of type PEM. For other bundle types, Citrix® recommends installing the root and intermediate certificates and linking them to the server certificate.
    3. Upload the certificate and the key.

    Note:

    • Install your intermediate certificate on the Adaptive Authentication instance and link it with the server certificate.

      1. Log in to the Adaptive Authentication instance.
      2. Navigate to Traffic Management > SSL. For details, see Configure intermediate certificates.
    • Only public certificates are accepted. Certificates signed by private or unknown CAs aren’t accepted.
    • Certificate configuration or certificate updates must be done using the Adaptive Authentication UI only. Do not change it directly on the instance as this might result in inconsistencies.

  2. Upload the certificate and the key.

    Adaptive authentication service auto connects to Citrix Cloud™ as IDP once certificate upload is successful. The status of the Adaptive authentication service can be verified from Identity and access management UI.
