8. Provide a name for the certificate, this needs to be easily identifiable if you are working with multiple domains. This is for your records only.

9. If your server is 40 bit enabled, you will generate a 512 bit key. If your server is 128 bit you can generate up to 1024 bit keys. We recommend you stay with the default of 1024 bit key if the option is available. Click '''Next'''
