Attention: Before generating a request, ensure that your current browser does not 
have restrictions on the type of keys that are used for certificates. Some browsers limit 
the use of specific key-types for security and compatibility reasons.
Also, consult your organization’s security policy to ensure that the key type you are 
configuring is compliant.
Attention: If you must update a field in the certificate request, generate a new request 
and submit it to signing by the proper certificate authority. However, this process 
invalidates the previous certificate request and prevents the installation of the signed 
certificate associated with the original request.
