You can use the Advanced Networking Services API to creates a single or multiple certificates.

You can create, install, and manage self-signed server certificates.

Prerequisites
1

Log in to vCloud Air as an administrator. See Log in to vCloud Air for information.

2

Create a login session with vCloud Director. See Create a Session for a Virtual Data Center in a Service for information.

3

Using the vCloud API, query vCloud Director for the ID of the edge gateway where you want to create the certificate.

Note

Verify that you have a CA certificate so that you can sign your own certificates. By adding a CA certificate, you can become an interim CA for your company. You then have the authority for signing your own certificates.
