Absolutely. The EdgeADC has full capabilities for creating CSRs and self-signed SSL certificates.

Navigate to Library > SSL Certificates and you will see the SSL Manager.

Version below 4.3

In versions prior to 4.3.x the ability to create a CSR or self-signed certificate looked something like the image below:

Follow the simple steps to create your own self-signed SSL certificate:

  1. Fill in the details in the form.
  2. Remember that CSRs do not have a Period of validity
  3. Click Create Local Certificate or Create Certificate request.
  4. A The appropriate certificate or CSR will be created and be available in the certificate store, or for download.
  5. You can put it to use immediately.
