Uploading a Certificate

Updated on 2024-04-12 GMT+08:00

If you select HTTPS for Client Protocol when you add a website to WAF, a certificate must be associated with the website.

You can upload a certificate to WAF. Then you can directly select the uploaded certificate for the protected website.

Prerequisites

You have obtained the certificate file and certificate private key.

Specification Limitations

You can upload as many certificates in WAF as the number of domain names that can be protected by your WAF instances in the same account.

Constraints

If you import a new certificate when adding a protected website or updating a certificate, the certificate is added to the certificate list on the Certificates page, and the imported certificates is counted in the number of created certificates.

Application Scenario

If you select HTTPS for Client Protocol, a certificate is required.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner and choose Web Application Firewall under Security.
  4. In the navigation pane, choose Objects > Certificates.
  5. Click Upload Certificate.

    • If you select Chinese for Type, specify Certificate Name and copy the signature certificate, signature private key, encryption certificate, and encryption private key to the corresponding text boxes.
    • If you select International for Type, specify Certificate Name and copy the certificate file and private key to the corresponding text boxes.
    Only .pem certificates can be used in WAF. If the certificate is not in .pem format, convert it into .pem locally by referring to Table 1 before uploading it.
    Table 1 Certificate conversion commands

    Format

    Conversion Method

    CER/CRT

    Rename the cert.crt certificate file to cert.pem.

    PFX

    • Obtain a private key. For example, run the following command to convert cert.pfx into key.pem:

      openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pfx -nocerts -out key.pem -nodes

    • Obtain a certificate. For example, run the following command to convert cert.pfx into cert.pem:

      openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pfx -nokeys -out cert.pem

    P7B

    1. Convert a certificate. For example, run the following command to convert cert.p7b into cert.cer:

      openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -in cert.p7b -out cert.cer

    2. Rename certificate file cert.cer to cert.pem.

    DER

    • Obtain a private key. For example, run the following command to convert privatekey.der into privatekey.pem:

      openssl rsa -inform DER -outform PEM -in privatekey.der -out privatekey.pem

    • Obtain a certificate. For example, run the following command to convert cert.cer into cert.pem:

      openssl x509 -inform der -in cert.der -out cert.pem

    NOTE:
    • Before running an OpenSSL command, ensure that the OpenSSL tool has been installed on the local host.
    • If your local PC runs a Windows operating system, go to the command line interface (CLI) and then run the certificate conversion command.

  6. Click Confirm.
