-------------------

:ref:`ref-fioctl` includes a sub-command to set this up:
``fioctl keys ca create /absolute/path/to/certs/``. A few important things to
note about this command:

.. code-block::

fioctl keys ca create /absolute/path/to/certs/

A few important things to note about this command:

* It's highly recommend that you use a PKCS#11 compatible HSM. This
will ensure the safety of your factory's root of trust private key.

* The "PKI Directory" is important and should be securely backed
up.

You can view the configured certificates with
``fioctl keys ca show --pretty``.
After running the above command, you can validate the outcome and view the configured certificates by using the following command:

.. code-block::

fioctl keys ca show --pretty

The Factory PKI is interwoven with Device Manufacturing Process and Device Registration,
