To register a self signed device certificate

The following register-certificate example registers the deviceCert.pem device certificate signed by the rootCA.pem CA certificate. The CA certificate must be registered before you use it to register a self-signed device certificate. The self-signed certificate must be signed by the same CA certificate you pass to this command.

aws iot register-certificate --certificate-pem file://deviceCert.pem --ca-certificate-pem file://rootCA.pemIdentify

--certificate-pemThe certificate data, in PEM format.
