The KeyStore Interface contains two main sections:
Tree Table panel allowing the navigation between the entries;
Details Panel for visualizing the current selection.
The tree table contains the following sortable columns:
Entry Alias - e.g. the name of the certificate, the name of the key pair;
Key Type - e.g. RSA 2048, DSA 512, EC 163 (the type of the key pair or of the certificate, and the length of the key);
Expire Date - the expiration date of the certificate or key pair - e.g. 26.10.2011 17:43:03 (DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM:SS);
Last Modified - the date of the last modification of the certificate or key pair - e.g. 26.10.2011 17:43:03 (DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM:SS);
Validity Status - the status of the entry (e.g. - valid, expired, about to expire);
Trust Status - the trust status of the certificate entry. It can take one of the following 3 values:
Trusted- if a Trust Path could be established using the provided TrustStores and Trust Path options;Not Trusted- if a Trust Path could not be established using the provided TrustStores and the Trust Path options;N/A- if no TrustStores were set.
