Usage Guidelines
The parameters of a PKI entity contain the identity information of the entity. The CA identifies a certificate applicant based on identity information provided by the entity. To facilitate applicant identification, configure a locality name for the PKI entity, which is used as an alias of the entity.
After the locality name is configured for a PKI entity, the certificate request packet sent by the device to the CA server carries this locality name. The CA server verifies every received certificate request packet. For each valid packet, the CA server generates a digital certificate carrying the locality name of the PKI entity.
