Use Autoenrollment Server

After installing and configuring Autoenrollment Server, you're ready to request certificates from DigiCert ONE. This section provides an overview of how to use and monitor certificate enrollment activity.

Start and stop Autoenrollment Server

You can start and stop Autoenrollment Server by starting and stopping the autoenrollment service.

Nota

Although you can use Windows Service Manager to start and stop the autoenrollment service, the service status may not always display accurately. DigiCert recommends that you use the Autoenrollment Configuration utility to start and stop the service. Optionally, click Refresh in the utility to display current status.

By default, the autoenrollment service starts automatically upon system startup. You cannot configure the Autoenrollment Configuration utility or import an autoenrollment configuration file while the autoenrollment service is running.

To start and stop Autoenrollment Server:

  1. Log on to the computer as the AE Administrator.

  2. On the Start menu, select DigiCert, then right-click Autoenrollment Configuration and select Run as Administrator.

  3. Depending on the service's current status, click Start Service or Stop Service, as appropriate.
