phosphor-certificate-manager

Certificate management allows to replace the existing certificate and private key file with another (possibly CA signed) Certificate key file. Certificate management allows the user to install both the server and client certificates.

To Build

To build this package, do the following steps:

    1. ./bootstrap.sh
    2. ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
    3. make

To clean the repository run `./bootstrap.sh clean`.

To Run

Multiple instances of phosphor-certificate-manager are usually run on the bmc to support management of different types of certificates.

Usage: ./phosphor-certificate-manager [options]
Options:
    --help            Print this menu
    --type            certificate type
                      Valid types: client,server,authority
    --endpoint        d-bus endpoint
    --path            certificate file path
    --unit=<name>     Optional systemd unit need to reload

Https certificate management

Purpose: Server https certificate

./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=server --endpoint=https \
    --path=/etc/ssl/certs/https/server.pem --unit=bmcweb.service

CA certificate management

Purpose: Client certificate validation

./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=authority --endpoint=ldap \
    --path=/etc/ssl/certs/authority --unit=bmcweb.service

LDAP client certificate management

Purpose: LDAP client certificate validation

./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=client --endpoint=ldap \
    --path=/etc/nslcd/certs/cert.pem

D-Bus Interface

phosphor-certificate-manager is an implementation of the D-Bus interface defined in this document.

D-Bus service name is constructed by "xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.{Type}.{Endpoint}" and D-Bus object path is constructed by "/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/{type}/{endpoint}".

Take https certificate management as an example.

./phosphor-certificate-manager --type=server --endpoint=https \
    --path=/etc/ssl/certs/https/server.pem --unit=bmcweb.service

D-Bus service name is "xyz.openbmc_project.Certs.Manager.Server.Https" and D-Bus object path is "/xyz/openbmc_project/certs/server/https".

Usage in openbmc/bmcweb

OpenBMC bmcweb exposes various REST APIs for certificate management on the BMC, which leverages functionalities of phosphor-certificate-manager via D-Bus.
