Description

The Add-CAAuthorityInformationAccess cmdlet configures the uniform resource identifier (URI) for the Authority Information Access (AIA) or Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) for a certification authority (CA). An AIA URI should specify either an AIA extension or an OCSP extension, but not both.

Examples

Example 1: Add AIA to the specified authority

PS C:\> Add-CAAuthorityInformationAccess -AddToCertificateAia -Uri http://ca1.corp.contoso.com/pki

This command adds Authority Information Access (AIA) for the specified certification authority to ' http://ca1.corp.contoso.com/pki '.

Example 2: Add AIA for OCSP

PS C:\> Add-CAAuthorityInformationAccess -AddToCertificateOcsp -Uri http://www.corp.contoso.com/ocsp.

This command adds AIA for OCSP pointing to http://www.corp.contoso.com/ocsp .

Example 3: Remove all AIA entries

PS C:\> $AIA = Get-CAAuthorityInformationAccess


PS C:\> $AIA | Remove-CAAuthorityInformationAccess

This example removes all AIA entries

The first command gets the certificate authority information and stores the information in the variable named $AIA.

The second command removes all the AIA entries that are stored in the $AIA variable.
