12.2. Usage

Once a simple CMC Request, which contains a PKCS#10 request, has been generated, send it to the CA. The easiest method is to use the end-entities pages:
  1. Open the end-entities services pages.
    https://server.example.com:9444/ca/ee/ca/
  2. Select the caCMCUserCert profile.
  3. Paste in the CMC request.
Alternatively, use HttpClient to post it to the profile.
  1. Run the AtoB tool to convert the base-64-encoded PKCS #10 request to binary.
  2. Use the HttpClient utility to send the request.
    There are several profiles where the CMC request can be sent, including /ca/ee/ca/profileSubmitCMCFull and /ca/ee/ca/profileSubmitCMCSimple. The profile must be specified in the HttpClient configuration.
