Certificate Templates

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

Certificate templates can greatly simplify the task of administering a certification authority (CA) by allowing an administrator to identify, modify, and issue certificates that have been preconfigured for selected tasks. The Certificate Templates snap-in allows an administrator to perform the following tasks:

• View properties for each certificate template.

• Copy and modify certificate templates.

• Perform other administrative tasks relating to certificate templates.
