+ This page uses the freeradius2 built-in script called "bootstrap" to create CA and certs. The disatvantage of this script is that nothing of your changes will be saved in the global config.xml file. So after a systemcrash or reinstallation of freeradius2 package
+ all your CA and certs will be lost. If you have a backup of all these files on an USB stick or another server than you can copy them back in the freeradius certs folder.<br><br>
+
+ <b>The better way is to use the pfsense built-in Cert Manager (SYSTEM-> Cert Manager).</b> The CA-Cert and Server-Cert you created there you just have to copy to the freeradius certs folder and pointing to these certs in eap.
+ The advantage of this is that all your CA and certs will be saved in global config.xml and can be restored.]]></description>
