Describe the bug

Sounds like an omission in the documentation, transferring the ticket to there. An intermediate is just a CA which has another (self-signed) CA is issuer.

I plan on updating this document: #599

I have seen the edits. But it doesn't add up to the latest version of OPNsense.
There is NO(!) option for creating a intermediate CA within the GUI.

Please look at the screenshot.

Method: Create an internal Certificate Authority
Issuer: Select the previously created Root CA

This does not work?
