Adding your enterprise CA as a trusted certificate authority. If you used an enterprise CA on your network, or if you created a CA for demos, as described in Self-signed certificates: Creating a Certificate Authority for development, the CA’s root certificate must be installed as a trusted root certificate authority in the following locations: The CA signs the intermediate root with its private key, which makes it trusted. Then the CA uses the intermediate certificate’s private key to sign and issue end user SSL certificates. This process can play out several times, where an intermediate root signs another intermediate and then a CA uses that to sign certificate.
The root certificate is a Base-64 encoded X.509(.CER) format root certificate from the backend certificate server. It identifies the root certificate authority (CA) that issued the server certificate and the server certificate is then used for the TLS/SSL communication.
