How to Export SSL Certificates from a LoadMaster Certificate Backup

To back up certificates and keys, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster WUI:

1. Go to Certificates & Security > Backup/Restore Certs.

2. In the Certificate Backup section, enter the desired Passphrase twice. This passphrase is needed when restoring the backup.

3. After the file is downloaded, rename it to certbackup.gz.

4. Once you have the .gz file, you can either unzip it from the command line using gzip -d or using a tool such as 7-Zip.

5. Rename the resulting file certbackup.aes.

6. Download and install OpenSSL from the web.

7. In OpenSSL, enter: openssl enc -in certbackup.aes -out certbackup.tar -d -aes256 -md md5 -k passphrase

   Note: Where passphrase is the Passphrase you entered when exporting the backup from the LoadMaster.

8. Untar the resulting file (certbackup.tar).

The resulting folder will contain your certificates.
