In our case the sub ordinate CA cert had expired and users were getting certificate errors opening emails etc.


Go to

Objects -> Object Management -> PKI -> Internal CA's ->

If you edit the old cert you can see when it expired "Not Valid After:"


Cancel from this screen

Click Generate CA buttion at the top

Fill in details

Name: firewall.customer.com

Common Name: firewall.customer.com

Click Generate CSR button

Copy the CSR into a notepad


Now go to your internal CA and request the cert

https://192.168.10.30/certsrv

Login with username and password

Request a cert

Advanced certificate request

Paste the CSR created earlier


Choose the certificate template for Subordinate CA. If its not there that is a separate issue which needs to be resolved on the CA server by windows team.

Click Submit

Choose DER encoded and download the signed cert

Go back to FMC

Install the signed cert, click browse and select the downloaded cert file.


Now go into your SSL policy and edit any decrypt/resign rules and change to the new cert and push the policy.


You can now delete the old cert.
