A10 Thunder ADC¶

1. In the TLS Protect Cloud toolbar, click Machines.
2. Click the checkbox next to the A10 Thunder ADC machine that you want to provision a certificate to.
3. Click Provision a certificate.

4. From the Choose a certificate from the inventory field, begin typing the certificate name you want to provision. Click the certificate when you see it listed.

   Verify that you've selected the correct certificate by reviewing the Subject DN, Validity, and Fingerprint.

5. In the Virtual Server Name field, enter the name for this certificate as you want it to appear on your A10 Thunder ADC.

   What if the name is already in use on the A10 Thunder ADC?

   When provisioning a certificate to the A10 Thunder ADC, TLS Protect Cloud checks to see if the name you enter in this field is already in use.

   • If the name you enter isn't in use, TLS Protect Cloud will use it.
   • If the name is in use, TLS Protect Cloud checks to see if it's the same certificate. If so, TLS Protect Cloud uses the certificate that is already on the A10 Thunder ADC.
   • If the name is in use, but it's a different certificate, then TLS Protect Cloud creates a new certificate. A unique certificate name will be generated using a combination of the certificate name entered in this field, the expiration date from the certificate, and a unique numerical value, such as my-cert-name_22Oct05_3117.

6. In the Virtual Port Number field, enter your port number. Otherwise, the default port will be interpreted as 443.

7. In the Virtual Port Protocol field, enter the port protocol. Otherwise, the default port protocol will be interpreted as HTTPS.

8. If you don't want the certificate to be pushed when you save, toggle the Push upon saving slider to No.

9. Click Save.
