    1. Enter strings of your choice in [Template display name] and [Template name].
      In this example, "LDAPS" is entered.
    2. Change [Validity period] as required.

      • Before the certificate expires, create a new certificate (reissue the certificate) and register it to the multifunction device.
      • Using a certificate that is valid for an extended period of time may adversely affect security.
      • Decide on a well-balanced expiration date for the certificate, according to the needs of your environment.
    3. Click [OK].
  9. Confirm that the template you created is displayed in the list of certificate templates.
