Generate one or more private-public key pairs for use within the VHL trust network. Key pairs SHOULD be scoped to specific usage contexts (e.g., signing, encryption, or secure channels) and MAY be categorized by business domain or participant role.

Include relevant metadata to support validation and categorization. This MAY include:

• Intended key usage
• Organizational identifier or participant reference
• Certificate validity period
• Trust path information (e.g., issuing CA)

Submit the public key material and associated metadata to the Trust Anchor using the designated secure channel for validation and trust list inclusion.

Ensure that the submitted PKI material can be validated, signed, and distributed by the Trust Anchor to other trust network participants through Distribute PKI Material.
