Hi Eugene,

Thank you very much for the information. After reading your reply and
reviewing the PKI installation doc a few more times, it seems this is what
I need to do for that Provisioning Entry - Signing tab. I can use the
radius server certificate and private key, together with the pf PKI CA
(just the CA cert), to sign the OSX/IOS provisioning profile. I will give
it a try.
