DMVPN with PKI auth and enrollment?

Hi,

When you first configure a trust point the next thing you will do is to manually enroll and authenticate the CA to itself with the standard procedures.

crypto pki authenticate <trustpoint> crypto pki enroll <trustpoint> 

Once the CA has successfully authenticated and enrolled the certificate then will be stored on the routers local storage.

Question:

  1. If router reloads, basically it will use the certificate installed on local storage and router doesn't do automatic authenticate and enrollment on it reboot?
  2. So this mean that if the certificate is still valid for a period of time then we don't need to repeat the manual auth/enroll process?
  3. During the troubleshooting would you recommend re-authenticating or re-enrolling to trustpoint? If yes, what would be it's advantage. If no, what would be the risk repeating the process?
  4. In what instance should we repeat the manual auth/enroll process?

Thank you
