Generating Subsystem CSR with PKI NSS

Generating CSR

To create a certificate request, prepare a certificate extension configuration (e.g. subsystem.conf):

authorityKeyIdentifier = keyid:always
keyUsage               = critical, digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment
extendedKeyUsage       = clientAuth

Then execute the following command:

$ pki nss-cert-request \
    --subject "CN=Subsystem Certificate" \
    --ext subsystem.conf \
    --csr subsystem.csr
