Creating a CSR Creating a CSR
Log on as the Plesk Server Administrator and click "Domains". After clicking the domain which you want to secure, click "Certificates". Plesk will now ask for your company information to complete the CSR.

As you complete these fields, please keep a few things in mind:

Country/State/City - Enter the locality information based on where your business operates, not where your server is located. Spell out all state and city information. For example, if your business operates in Texas, use "Texas" for the state, rather than "TX". If you are an international customer in a country without states or provinces, please use your country name in the state field.

Organization - Please use your full, unabbreviated legal business name including any applicable suffix, such as "Inc" or "LLC". If your company name is registered in an abbreviated form, then you may use abbreviations if you would like to do so.

Common Name - This is where you type the web address of your site. For example, www.securetrust.com and xramp.com are both acceptable. Please do not include http:// or https://.

When you have finished entering your information, click "Request". Your new CSR and private key will be displayed.

Submit the CSR to Trustwave Submit the CSR to Trustwave
Highlight and copy the entire CSR - including the top and bottom dashed lines - and paste it into the Trustwave Control Center. We recommend backing up your private key and CSR as a precaution.

» After you submit your CSR, check your validation status
