This dialog allows administrators to easily set the same parameters of original certificate to a new generated certificate.

Reissue dialog has 4 options:

  • Reissue of IceWarp certificate

  • Reissue of authority certificate

  • Reissue of Let’s Encrypt certificate

Note: The certificate is designed to re-assure anyone connecting to your server that you are who you say you are, so the more accurate and complete the information in the certificate, the more secure your users will be.
