OpenSSL is a CLI (Command Line Tool) which can be used to secure the server to generate public key infrastructure (PKI) and HTTPS. This article helps you as a quick reference to understand OpenSSL commands which are very useful in common, and for everyday scenarios especially for system administrators.
If we want to obtain SSL certificate from a certificate authority (CA), we must generate a certificate signing request (CSR). A CSR consists of mainly the public key of a key pair, and some additional information. Both these components are merged into the certificate whenever we are signing for the CSR.
While generating a CSR, the system will prompt for information regarding the certificate and this information is called as Distinguished Name (DN). The important field in the DN is the Common Name (CN) which should be the FQND (Fully Qualified Domain Name) of the server or the host where we intend to use the certificate with.
The next item in a DN is to provide the additional information about our business or organization. If we purchase an SSL certificate from a certificate authority (CA), it is very important and required that these additional fields like โ€œOrganizationโ€ should reflect your organization for details.
Here is a general example for the CSR information prompt, when we run the OpenSSL command to generate the CSR.
We can also provide the information by non-interactive answers for the CSR information generation, we can do this by adding the โ€“subj option to any OpenSSL commands that we try to generate or run.
Below is an example for the โ€“subj option where we can provide the information of the organization where we want to use this CSR.
In this section, we will cover about OpenSSL commands which are related to generating the CSR. This CSR can be used to request an SSL certificate from a certificate authority.
If we want to use HTTPS (HTTP over TLS) to secure the Apache or Nginx web servers (using a Certificate Authority (CA) to issue the SSL certificate). Also, the โ€˜.CSRโ€™ which we will be generating has to be sent to a CA for requesting the certificate for obtaining CA-signed SSL.
Below is the command to create a 2048-bit private key for โ€˜domain.keyโ€™ and a CSR โ€˜domain.csrโ€™ from the scratch.
The โ€˜โ€“newkey rsa:2048โ€™ is the option which we are specifying that the key should be 2048-bit using the RSA algorithm. The โ€™ โ€“nodesโ€™ option is to specifying that the private key should not be encrypted with a pass phrase. The โ€˜-newโ€™ option, indicates that a CSR is being generated.
Here we will learn about, how to generate a CSR for which you have the private key.
Below is the command to create a new .csr file based on the private key which we already have.
Here we can generate or renew an existing certificate where we miss the CSR file due to some reason. Here, the CSR will extract the information using the .CRT file which we have.
Below is the example for generating โ€“
Where -x509toreq is specified that we are using the x509 certificate files to make a CSR.
Here we will generate the Certificate to secure the web server where we use the self-signed certificate to use for development and testing purpose.
Here, we generate self-signed certificate using โ€“x509 option, we can generate certificates with a validity of 365 days using โ€“days 365 and a temporary .CSR files are generated using the above information.
Please note that, CSR files are encoded with .PEM format (which is not readable by the humans). This is required to view a certificate. In this section, we can cover the OpenSSL commands which are encoded with .PEM files.
The below command will be used to view the contents of the .CRT files Ex (domain.crt) in the plain text format.
In this section, will see how to use OpenSSL commands that are specific to creating and verifying the private keys.
Below is the command to create a password-protected and, 2048-bit encrypted private key file (ex. domain.key) โ€“
Enter a password when prompted to complete the process.
Below is the command to check that a private key which we have generated (ex: domain.key) is a valid key or notย 
If the private key is encrypted, you will be prompted to enter the pass phrase. Upon the successful entry, the unencrypted key will be the output on the terminal.
In this article, we have learnt some commands and usage of OpenSSL commands which deals with SSL certificates where the OpenSSL has lots of features. We will learn more features and usage in the future. I hope this article will help us to understand some basic features of the OpenSSL.

To perform the following actions for Windows or Linux, you must have OpenSSL installed on your system.
Generating the Private Key -- Windows
1. Open the Command Prompt (Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt).
2. Navigate to the following folder:
ย ย ย ย ย C:\Program Files\ListManager\tclweb\bin\certs
openssl genrsa -out rsa.private 1024
4. Press ENTER. The private key is generated and saved in a file named "rsa.private" located in the same folder.
NOTE The number "1024" in the above command indicates the size of the private key. You can choose one of five sizes: 512, 758, 1024, 1536 or 2048 (these numbers represent bits). The larger sizes offer greater security, but this is offset by a penalty in CPU performance. We recommend the best practice size of 1024.
Generating the Public Key -- Windows
1. At the command prompt, type the following:
openssl rsa -in rsa.private -out rsa.public -pubout -outform PEM
2. Press ENTER. The public key is saved in a file named rsa.public located in the same folder.
Generating the Private Key -- Linux
2. Navigate to the folder with the ListManager directory.
openssl genrsa -out rsa.private 1024
4. Press ENTER. The private key is generated and saved in a file named "rsa.private" located in the same folder.
openssl rsa -in rsa.private -out rsa.public -pubout -outform PEM
2. Press ENTER. The public key is saved in a file named rsa.public located in the same folder.
