Gordon Sim commented on DISPATCH-1903:
--------------------------------------

Agree with Robbie that it *might* be simpler overall to have e.g. caCertString, 
certString and privateKeyString, with pem encoded strings as values and never 
bother trying to write them out. Typical certs/keys are not that long, 2k or 
so. I wouldn't recommend this as an approach for the config file, but over the 
management protocol that would work fine.

 

Alternatively you could have e.g caCertRef, certRef, privateKeyRef and then 
have a new 'named blob' entity that these refer to. The named blob would be 
created/deleted using management and held in memory.

> Currently, when using the management protocol to create new SSL-profiles, 
> those profiles must access certificate files that are already placed in the 
> file system.  In other words, in order to create an SSL-profile on a running 
> router, files must first be placed on the file system in a location 
> accessible by the router.  This may be problematic in cases where the router 
> is remote from the managing agent, or when containerization limits access to 
> the router's underlying file system.
> This new feature allows a managing agent to remotely inject files into a 
> running router to be stored in temporary file storage.  These files are 
> usable in sslProfile management entities (by specifying the files without an 
> absolute path).  The temporary files are removed from the file system on 
> router shutdown.
