Certificate and Private Key

To set the private key and public certificate, click Configure to start a sub-assistant. It's important to include the SBC FQDN in the certificate's Subject, Common Name (CN), or Subject Alternate Name (SAN) fields.

However, if you choose to skip the certificate and private key configurations, you can select the option I do not want to provide a certificate and an associated private key yet. Take note that the certificate exchange and handshake are mandatory for the Webex Calling SIP signaling connectivity via TLS (Transport Layer Security), so they must be provided later.

Such configurations can be reviewed and changed anytime in the Network Security Profile dialog of the referring node. An example is given in the chapter Network Security Profile. The Cisco Webex Calling Cloud Service root certificate(s) are also located there in the Trusted peer certificates settings.
