Once a simple CMC Request, which contains a PKCS#10 request, has been generated, send it to the CA. The easiest method is to use the end-entities pages:

Open the end-entities services pages.

https://server.example.com:9444/ca/ee/ca/

Select the caCMCUserCert profile.
Paste in the CMC request.

Alternatively, use HttpClient to post it to the profile.

Run the AtoB tool to convert the base-64-encoded PKCS #10 request to binary.
Use the HttpClient utility to send the request.
There are several profiles where the CMC request can be sent, including /ca/ee/ca/profileSubmitCMCFull and /ca/ee/ca/profileSubmitCMCSimple. The profile must be specified in the HttpClient configuration.
