    When you import a certificate on the OFTP tab that has the same CLID as as an existing certificate, a dialog is displayed that allows you to trigger the automatic certificate exchange. Three options are available:
    • Save the certificate without triggering a certificate exchange.
    • Use the certificate exchange to send the new certificate as a succession certificate automatically to all partners who use the old certificate.
    • Replace the old certificate with the new one. Subsequently, the old certificate is no longer accepted by all the partners who have confirmed the certificate exchange.
