Hi Members,

Hello members, 

I want to check if anyone where is the "self-sign" certifite for fortigate WEBUI store ? I search through the system->certificate but i cant find a certificate name "self-sign" and check every certificate SN but no matching.

Thank you

Hi,
I am not sure if I understood the question correctly, but if you are trying to generate a self-sign certificate you can do this by following this guide:

Hi franzcisco,

thanks for the reply, much appreciate.

Currently the fortigate HTTPS server is using "self-sign", I wanted to locate and find the "self-sign" certificate and print screen the information about the "self-sign" and submit to for compliance purpose. How do i find the "self-sign" certificate information?

thank you,

Meng Kiat

Hello Meng,

all certificates should be listed on the "system->certificates" path which you already searched, and the self-signed ones go under "Local Certificate".

I just tried to create a self signed certificate and it did end up there (see screenshot).
I can then assign this new self signed certificate to the HTTPS UI (it shows up in the drop down menu).
My advise is to create a new self-signed certificate and try from there.
