How to renew NPS certificate?

Hi
I renewed my root certificate and this has replicated fine to all machines in the domain.
I did notice that on the Network Policy server the old certificate was still in place:

The NPS is configured on the domain controller.

Will this certificate be automatically renewed when the DC starts to use the new root certificate or do I need to recreate the policy setting and use the new certificate?

Thanks, M

    Hello

    Thank you for your question and reaching out.

    You should see your CA cert in the Trusted root CA store on your domain joined machines. Typically you will also have a GPO that will distribute your CA cert to your client machines.
