If autoenrollment is used, participants apply for and renew certificates independently.
Regarding the validity of the certificates and the period for their automatic renewal, there are two values that can be configured in the General tab of a certificate template:
- Validity period: Describes the overall validity of the issued certificate.
- Renewal period: Describes from which time window, viewed backwards from the expiration date of the certificate, automatic renewal is attempted for the first time (e.g. 6 weeks before expiration).
