Certificate based Authentification

Hello Guys,

I'm currently working on establishing a site-to-site-VPN connection using the IPSec protocol and two Fortigate-Firewalls.

Got my certificate based authentification working, using those instructions:

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/5.6.0/cookbook/850466/obtaining-the-necessary-certifica...

 

Now my question is: w

Why do I need two CA-Certificates to establish the VPN connection?

Would this also work if I only had one CA-Certificate, that would sign both of the client/firewall-certificates?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Marcel
