Discussion

Trust settings for a certificate are associated with the hash of the certificate. Whenever the system encounters a certificate with the hash value associated with the trust settings, it applies those trust settings to the certificate. This function allows you to import trust settings in a portable data format that was exported from another machine. You can use this ability, for example, to clone trust settings to all the machines within an enterprise or university.
