Slides & Recording

 

Minutes

  • Cert-Manager is commonly used as solution to enroll X.509 certificates to K8s workloads

  • Cert-Manager doesn't support CMPv2 protocol natively, but it supports idea of external issuers, which could extend Cert-Manager capabilities

  • Within ONAP Honolulu release Nokia implemented CMPv2 external issuer, which extends Cert-Manager with capability to enroll X.509 certificates from CMPv2 servers

    • Such integration uses already implemented CMPv2 CertService

  • Ingress resources can be integrated with Cert-Manager, so they have now also a capability to get certificates from CMPv2 servers

  • Istio Service Mesh integrates with Cert-Manager, so it has now also a capability to get certificates from CMPv2 servers
