When we set up the CA, we have defined the CA validity period as 20 years. But it doesn't mean every certificate it issues will have 20 years' valid period. Root CAs will issue certificates only to the issuing CAs. Certificate requests, approval, and renewal processes are manual. Therefore, these certificates will have longer validity periods. In the demo, I will set it for 10 years:
