Can't install 3rd Party SSL into Cisco ASA 5505

Hello all

I have a Cisco ASA 5505 , running ASA Version 8.3(1), and ASDM version 6.3(1)

I cannot install a 3rd party (GoDaddy/Starfield tech) SSL certificate for the life of me.

Generating the CSR from the ASA itself I get "Failed to parse or verify imported certificate" even though the starfield specific root and intermediate certificates seem to install fine.

Someone in the Cisco support forums suggested generating the CSR from a windows computer, installing the cert on windows computer, and then exporting out to PKCS12 (.pfx), then importing into ASA afterward.

I'm met with Error Import PKCS12 operation failed.

Your best bet is to create the certificate request on the ASA. Here are some straightforward instructions for using the ASDM to create a certificate request. You will want to be sure to change the CN value to your match your DNS record.

Because no one else presented a solution that worked. The one person who replied sent a link to KB article I had already seen and tried.

Operating Systems

Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. For large systems, the operating system makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not access the system. Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run.
