You are creating the identity certificates that must be installed in the Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise (SBCE). Which statement about installing the certificate files in the SBCE is…

Question

Options

• AThe cert file and the Key filenames generated by the Certificate Authority must match.
• BBoth the PEM and Key files must be in a zip file.
• CThe SBCE must be rebooted before the files installation.
• DThe cert file and the Key filenames generated by the Certificate Authority must be different.

• A
  94% (65)
• B
  3% (2)
• C
  1% (1)
• D
  1% (1)

Explanation

When installing identity certificates on the Avaya SBCE, the certificate (cert) file and the private key file must share the same filename (differing only by extension, e.g., mycert.pem and mycert.key) so the SBCE can correctly pair and validate them as a matched set during installation.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is incorrect - the SBCE accepts the PEM and Key files uploaded individually; they do not need to be bundled in a zip archive.
• C is incorrect - a reboot is not required before installing certificate files; the installation process does not depend on a prior reboot.
• D is the logical opposite of the correct answer - mismatched filenames will cause the SBCE to fail to associate the certificate with its corresponding private key.

Memory tip: Think of the cert and key files as a "matched pair" - like a lock and key that must carry the same label so the SBCE knows they belong together. Same name, different extension.
