Issue Description:

How to check the Entrust root certificate is downloading or not?

Here is the Root certificate download URL:

Note: Root certificate download URL is configured in the mid property: mid.ca.entrust.url

The Entrust root cert download URL got updated to:

Updated URL: https://web.entrust.com/root-certificates/entrust\_2048\_ca.cer

If the above URL is not working then in the Entrust Pattern, during the download root certificate step, it will get fail. So due to this Entrust Certificate discovery fails.
