In this step, configure the following settings.
Auto Renewal
Check this box for Certificate Manager to automatically renew certificates before they expire. Leave it unchecked otherwise (not recommended).
Mandatory: No. This box is unchecked by default.
Renewal Period
The moment for certificate renewal, as a number of days before certificate expiry. For example, a value of 30 triggers renewal 30 days before the certificate expiry date.
Mandatory: When enabling Auto Renewal.
PKCS#12 Password
Step 6 displays this field when the key strategy is CA-Generated (PKCS12 Bundle. Enter and confirm the password for the PKCS #12 that will protect the generated key.
Mandatory: when the key strategy is CA-Generated (PKCS12 Bundle).
Revoke Previous Certificate
Check this box to revoke certificates after they have been successfully renewed. This ensures that only the current, valid certificate remains active.
Disabling revocation leaves old certificates active after renewal and may pose a security risk, as compromised or outdated certificates remain valid until their original expiry date. It is strongly recommended to keep this option enabled.
Mandatory: No.
