If there are no active certificates, then it automatically becomes the active certificate. If you want to switch from one certificate to another, see Changing, disabling, and removing certificates.

An active root certificate authority (RCA) enables clients to accelerate SaaS traffic when SaaS applications are configured on the SaaS Accelerator page. You need to deploy the root CA certificate into the Trusted Root Certification Authority certificate store on your clients, and then your clients can automatically use certificates issued by this trusted root CA to accelerate encrypted SaaS traffic.
