Install custom CA on IOS

Now that I have generated by own custom certification chain in the previous article "x509 certificat managment" I need to install the Certificate Authority (CA) on my iPhone.

Install the certificate

First I need to install the CA certificate on the device.

The file was on the device and I opened it from the file explorer.

Then I need to go in IOS settings. In the "Général" section.

Then in the "VPN et gestion de l'appareil" section.

Click on the CA in the "Profil téléchargé" section.

I have followed the install process.

Finally I need to approve the CA as a root authority on the device. By going back to the "Général" section. Now in the "Informations" section.

Then in the "Réglages des certificats" section.

Finally toggled the certificate and completed the installation.
