Options and Arguments	Description
`-authcert <certificate>`	The certificate to use for TLS client authentication. Replace `<certificate>` with either the filename of the PKCS12 encoded token or unique part of subject DN of certificates in PKCS11 key store. See also `-pkcs11lib`.
`-authpin <pin>`	Replace `<pin>` with the pin to use for accessing the key associated with the certificate.
`-certstore <trust-store>`	Replace `<trust-store>` with the name of a file containing root CAs and subordinate CAs.
`-signcert <certificate>`	The certificate to use for signing the OCSP request. Replace `<certificate>` with either the filename of PKCS12 encoded token or unique part of subject DN of certificates in PKCS11 key store. See also `-pkcs11lib`.
`-signpin <pin>`	Replace `<pin>` with the pin to use for accessing the key associated with the certificate.
`-chain`	Use this option to add a certificate chain to the signed OCSP request. Only the signature certificate will be used in the signed OCSP request by default.
`-nochain`	Use this option to not add the signature certificate or chain to the signed OCSP request.
`-nonce`	Use this option to add a random nonce to the request.
`-pkcs11lib <lib>`	Replace `<lib>` with the name of a PKCS11 library. Must be specified to use authentication or signature certificate in a PKCS11 key store.
`-provider <provider>`	Replace `<provider>` with the provider name or class name of a JCE provider to perform the signature.
`-servicelocator <url>`	Replace `<url>` with the location of an alternate OCSP responder that the responder we query can redirect the request to.
`-signalg <algorithm>`	Replace `<algorithm>` with the name of the signature algorithm to use.
`-url <url>`	Replace `<url>` with the location of the OCSP responder to send a request to.
`-verbose`	Use this option to print out debug data and more information about the response.
`<serial-nr>`	Either a file containing the certificate one wants to query the status of or a certificate serial number and issuer name specified as: `<number>:<issuer DN or part of>`. The number can be specified either as decimal or as hexadecimal, prefixed with 0x.
