SSL certificate for TLS do send mails via encrypted channel

Hello forum,

i have to secure the transport channel to a foreign domain via TLS.
Now i want to buy a SSL certificate like from Comodo/Verisign/GeoTrust. Need to upload the CSR...
Went to Site-To-Site VPN / Certificate Management and i am pretty sure that the function for CSR was once there... at least until V4 as i remember [:)] Now it's gone. 
Found two threads belonging that question telling me to build that stuff external via OpenSSL (link1link2)

First question: Is that really the only way to bring SSL certificates to UTM?
Second question: Would you generate a public SSL certificate especially for TLS or do so for the WebAdmin certificate and use that one for WebAdmin and TLS?
Thanks for your input.

Regards, Karsten

  • I don't understand what is to be gained with a public signed certificate for TLS.

    Some financial organizations require public signed cert to exchange data. Otherwise they don't trust your endpoint.
    Just rules.

    Bye.
