I'm not sure that interpretation is a correct description of the process. All 
ssl certs indicate their issuer. As long as your device trusts that issuer, it 
trusts certificates from that issuer.
For example if you go to https://www.cisco.com and look at their cert on a 
window box you will see the certification path goes to a Baltimore CyberTrust 
root with is included in Windows built in trusted roots supplied by Microsoft.
Jabber works the same way it presents the various CUCM/IM&P/UCXN SSL certs to 
your PC and your PC verifies them against what it already trusts.

It's not pushing anything by my understanding.

Subject: [cisco-voip] Call Manager, Jabber, and Certificates


Jabber documentation indicates that the Certificate that the client may require 
and is 'pushed' from  Call Manager is a 'root certificate' that directs the 
Client to a trusted source that will validate the server's (Call Manager hosts) 
offered certificate.

If the Call Manager certificate is from a public trusted Certificate 
Authority(CA), and that CA is in the Windows certificate store, can the 
Certificate 'push' be avoided altogether?

Thanks,

Joe Loiacono
