Usage Guidelines
Creates a self signed certificate and private key that can be saved in NVRAM. The certificate generated
is in X509v3 format. The certificate generated is in PEM format.
Any existing certificate and private key is overwritten.
Most web browsers check whether the common-name field in the received server certificate is the same
as the URL used to reach the site, otherwise they give a warning.
The size of the certificate generated depends on the RSA key length (privkeylen) and the length of the
other parameters (country, organization name, and so forth) supplied by the user. If the RSA key length
is 1024, the certificate size is ~ 1kb and the private key length is ~1kb. For RSA Key length of 4096, the
certificate length is ~2kb and the private key length is ~3kb.
Example

bigcats
:
