To create a certificate for a DSA, you need to provide the DSA name. The DSA must already exist.

Use this process to create a certificate for a DSA:

  1. Use a certificate authority that you trust to create a certificate and the associated key pair.

    You can use the following tools:

  2. Check the created certificate to ensure that the DSA name in the subject field of the certificate matches the DSA name.
  3. Add the root certificate of the Certificate Authority that you used to create the DSA certificate to the end of the file trusted.pem.
