It may take several days to receive the certificates. If the certificates arrive by e-mail, save them to an
FTP server. If the CA provides access to the certificates on an FTP server, make note of the path name
and make sure you have a login name and password on the server.

switch:admin> seccertutil import
3. Select a protocol, enter the IP address of the host on which the switch certificate is saved, and enter
your login name and password:
