Larry McCay updated KNOX-3010:
------------------------------
Description:
The following docs are incorrect and need some correction:
{code}
h5. Creating the token hash key
[!https://knox.apache.org/books/knox-2-1-0/markbook-section-link.png!|https://knox.apache.org/books/knox-2-1-0/user-guide.html#Creating+the+token+hash+key]
As explained, if you would like to use Knox’s token generation features, you
will have to create a gateway-level alias with a 256, 384, or 512-bit length
JWK. You can do it in - at least - two different ways:
# You generate your own MAC (using [this online
tool|https://8gwifi.org/jwkfunctions.jsp] for instance) and save it as an alias
using Knox CLI.
# You do it running the following Knox CLI command:
{{generate-jwk --saveAlias knox.token.hash.key}}
The second option involves a newly created Knox CLI command called
{{{}generate-jwk{}}}:
h5. Token state service implementations

{code}
I assume the command example that starts with generate-jwk should be knoxcli.sh
and the example command for generate-jwk should be after the mention of the
second option.
