Exporting Certificates

Export a certificate for SSL encryption to a local file system.

You can export two types of certificates, X.509 and PKCS #12.

For a key entry which has a private key, you can export the entry as an X.509 or PKCS #12 certificate.
For a key entry which has no private key, you can only export the entry as an X.509 certificate.

Select a key store entry from the Key Store Properties dialog.
Click Export.
If the certificate has a private key:
1. Select the Certificate type.
2. Enter and confirm the password to protect the private key in the exported .p12 file.
Click Next.
Click Finish to save the certificate to a file.
Select a location to export the file to the local file system.

An exported X.509 certificate is saved as a certificate_<alias>.cer file.

An exported PKCS #12 certificate is saved as a certificate_<alias>.p12 file.
