DESCRIPTION
You can use the ca-bundle-manager component to automatically update and
install CA-bundles on the system from two sources - local certificate
file objects and remote URL resources, using set include/exclude
operations. The set include/exclude operations are equivalent to
mathematical set addition/subtraction operations. For example, the user
may use include-bundle and include-url options to combine CA-
certificates from various sources, and use exclude-bundle and exclude-
url options to remove certain CA-certificates from the final CA-bundle
file. The generated CA-bundle file will be installed as a certificate-
file-object on the system, and used as trusted CA-bundle by other
modules. Additionally, the user may set the update frequency of the CA-
bundle, or use web proxy for downloading the remote URL resources. By
default, a newly created CA-bundle manager does not create or update
the managed CA-bundle object unless it has a positive update interval
or being explicitly told to do so by the update-now option.
Additionally, the calculated CA-bundle must contain at least two CA
certificates to be installed on the system.
EXAMPLES
modify sys crypto ca-bundle-manager bmgr include-bundle add {
ca-bundle.crt } include-url add { https://ca.f5net.com/ca-bundle.crt }
trusted-ca-bundle trusted-ca-chain.crt update-interval 30
Creates a ca-bundle-manager bmgr from two sources, one is a locally
installed certificate file object ca-bundle.crt, and the other is from
remote URL resource https://ca.f5net.com/ca-bundle.crt using trusted CA
bundle . bmgr is refreshed from the two sources
every 30 days.
modify sys crypto ca-bundle-manager bmgr update-now yes
Extending from above example, this command triggers an immediate update
of the generated ca-bundle from its sources.
list sys crypto ca-bundle-manager bmgr -hidden
Shows all the properties of the ca-bundle-manager bmgr, including the
hidden fields.
delete sys crypto ca-bundle-manager bmgr
Deletes the ca-bundle-manager bmgr from the system. Note that the
generated ca-bundle certificate file object is not removed, and can
still be used.
OPTIONS
description
Specifies user defined description.
include-bundle
Specifies a list of certificate file objects to include for
generating the new ca-bundle.
include-url
Specifies a list of remote ca-bundles at the URLs to include for
generating the new ca-bundle.
exclude-bundle
Specifies a list of certificate file objects to exclude from the
new ca-bundle.
exclude-url
Specifies a list of remote ca-bundles at the URLs to exclude from
the new ca-bundle.
partition Displays the administrative partition within which this ca-
bundle-manager resides.
proxy-server Specifies the host name or IP address of the proxy server
for accessing remote URL resources. Only HTTP proxy is supported.
Optional http:// may be prepended.
proxy-port Specifies the port number of the proxy server for accessing
remote URL resources. Default is 3128.
trusted-ca-bundle
Specifies the trusted CA certificate bundle when downloading ca-
bundles from the other URLs.
update-interval
Specifies the update interval in days to refresh the remote ca-
bundles at the URLs. Default value is 0, which means the generated
ca-bundle is not dynamically updated.
time-out
Specifies the time-out period in seconds to download the remote
ca-bundles at the URLs. The value ranges between 1 and 3600 (1
hour). The default value is 8 seconds.
update-now
Specifies whether the ca-bundle-manager should immediately refresh
its generated ca-bundle from all its sources and recalculate its
certificate contents. The default value is no.
updated-by
Specifies a read-only attribute from which this ca-bundle-manager
was last updated.
managed-bundle
Specifies a read-only attribute, which indicates the ca-bundle
certificate file object name, managed by this ca-bundle-manager.
