    Hello Team!

     

    I wanna ask you something. Is there a way to generate certificates though command line? I need to access or generate it exaclty from the apache server. Is it possible? 

     

    here is the command that I want to use 

    openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -out guest.aruba.porvenir.com.co.csr -keyout guest.aruba.porvenir.com.co.key

    A need to generate a request sign so a trusted entity can sign it. But I need to generate it from CLI (I believe on the linux machine in which the Clearpass is setup). 

     

    I know that I can generate it from the web access. But, every time I do that, the entity is saying that there is some kind of mistake so they had me do it direclty by command line. 

     

    I just want to know if it is possible.

    CSRs for ClearPass can be generated via the GUI or externally on another machine using OpenSSL.
