Main differences between Enterprise CA and Standalone CA ?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi,

one people in my team has made a project with a standalone CA but we are thinking about installing an Enterprise CA as we are using Active Directory.

We don't have any special needs actually but the advantage to have the Enterprise CA is the auto-enrollment so we would like to install it for the project and not anymore the standalone CA.

My question is, what differences should we have to know about the installation of an Enterprise CA in place of a Standalone CA ? (or more exactly what default options should I have to change on the Enterprise CA to work as if I was using a Standalone CA?)

For example, I am thinking about changing the default value of autoenrollment in the Enterprise CA ( Policy Modules/Properties/Set the certificate request status to pending).

But is there anything else ?

Thank you
