Difference between Hyperledger certificates during setup and enroll admin using fabric ca client

I have the doubt of the certificates generation and usage.

  1. While doing the network setup, for each organization we are creating admin user and additional user certificates.
  2. We are mapping the CA certificates and using in cli bash
  3. While using fabric client, we are creating a new keystore and creating and enrolling admin for users again.

What is the usage of Admin user we create for peer and organization using crytp-config.yaml file and crytpgen tool?

As far as i know, in the examples there are three Roles/Users created in the examples.

  1. an Admin, this is the admin for a given organization
  2. a User, this is an identity used to interact with the peer
  3. a PeerAdmin, this is an identity used to interact with the peer with the additional permissions of being able to create a channel, join other peers and installing chaincode
