# Create certificates for Azure cloud

This section describes how to create a self-signed certificate. To create a certificate signed by CA, refer to the OpenSSL documentation.

To create a self-signed certificate:

1. Install the prerequisite software.

   1. Download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package (x86).
   2. Download and install the latest version of OpenSSL. Use all of the default settings.

2. Set up the OpenSSL environment.

   Run the following commands:

   1. `set OPENSSL_CONF=C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin\openssl.cfg`
   2. `cd C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin`
   3. `openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -new -nodes -x509 -days 3650 -keyout myazurekey.pem -out myazurekey.pem`

   Enter the required information. When prompted, press Enter to confirm each operation. A file titled myazurekey.pem is created in the C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin folder.

3. Create the certificate.

   Run the following command:

   `openssl x509 -inform PEM -in myazurekey.pem -outform DER -out myazurekey.cer.`

   The myazurekey.cer file is created in the C:\OpenSSL-Win32\bin folder.

4. Upload the certificate to the Azure machine.

   Use the Azure Console > Settings > Manage Certificates view to upload the myazurekey.cer file to Azure.

5. Add the certificate in Controller.

   In Controller, select Tools > Manage Cloud Accounts. Select Microsoft Azure as the provider, and specify the myazurekey.pem file as the certificate. For details, see Manage Cloud Accounts dialog box.
