Managed PKI for SSL Support

End User Step-By-Step

Managed PKI for SSL Administrators notify end users of the enrollment URL and managed approval and issuance for certificates requested through the Managed PKI for SSL account.

Locate the Enrollment URL

1. Your Managed PKI for SSL Administrator will log-in to the MPKI Control Center: 
   https://onsite-admin.verisign.com/OnSiteHome.htm
2. Click on Certificate Management
3. On the left side, click on User Services
4. The enrollment site is linked on the right side. The URL will appear as: https://onsite.verisign.com/<<YOURACCOUNTJURISDICTION>>/index.htm
5. MPKI for SSL Administrators provide end users with the URL.

Step-by-Step Overview

Step 1: Generate a CSR >>

The Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is a string of text generated by your server software. You will be prompted for this string of text during the enrollment process. To generate a CSR, you need to know what kind of server software is running on your Web server to choose the correct instructions.

Step 2: End-User Certificate Enrollment >>

Enroll or submit your CSR to the MPKI Administrator using the lifecycle pages. Contact your MPKI Administrator if you do not know the enrollment URL and to determine the length of time required for approval.

Step 3: Install a Certificate >>

Once your enrollment has been approved by your Managed PKI for SSL Administrator, you will receive an email with detailed information on how to install the SSL Certificate. Choose the appropriate installation instructions for your server software.

If you are installing a Managed PKI for SSL Premium Edition or Managed PKI for SSL Intranet Edition certificate, you will also need to install an Intermediate CA certificate provided by your Managed PKI for SSL Administrator.
