I’d suggest that most users likely want the longest lifetime for their certs that they can get, so as to avoid the need to frequently replace expired certificates.

This is especially true because there is no way to recreate certs in the WUI when they expire, so you have to delete the entry and recreate it when that happens.

Hi Michael,
yes but the needs in there can differs a lot so the question arises
what is a good default ?
Another idea might be to add another (or a range of possible days) text
for that field ?
May the error message if an entry triggers one can also be extended.

Greetings,

Erik

Hello,

can we also set a good default value for this?

This can be a little bit confusing for new users and it would be good
to have
some guidance. It can be a separate patch.
