It is however good idea and opportunity to use a new key, just in case old one could have been compromised. | |

If you cannot connect to this device and do not have access to the existing private key, then you cannot generate a new CSR, therefore you cannot re-issue a new certificate. The only issue that remains here is that you are either locked out of your own device or do not own this device. | |
