Install Certificates on the MX6
Access: Start | Programs | Meetinghouse Certificate Installer
Copy the Root CA and the RADIUS server certificates to the MX6 with a flash card or use
ActiveSync to get the certificate file on the MX6. Install the certificates using CertAdd.
It is possible to connect to the root CA without validating the server and then request the root CA
while connected. This only applies to WPA and not WPA-PSK.
The RADIUS server certificate is the one installed in the Cisco ACS.
When viewing Certificate Information on the desktop computer, the Issued by: name is the
Certificate Issuer and the Issued to: name is the Server Certificate or common name.
About CertAdd
CertAdd is a stand-alone utility included with the Client that allows certificates to be selected and
installed on a Windows Mobile device.
Installing Certificates with CertAdd
Client or Certificate Authority (CA) certificates can be imported from *.cer (same as *.der), *.p7b,
or *.pfx files.
1. Download the certificate file to the MX6 My Documents folder. The location isn’t critical,
although you may want to create a standard folder for consistency.
2. Go to Start | Programs | Meetinghouse Certificate Installer. The opening screen is
displayed. All valid certificate file types located in the My Documents folder appear in the
list.
3. Tap and hold on the CA Root Certificate in the list. A pop-up appears asking if you want to
install the certificate.
4. Tap OK. The CA Root Certificate is loaded into the correct certificate store.
