Hi All, I am trying to implement encryption and authentication using SSL with my kafka broker.
I am able to successfully generate trustore and cecert and cakey files. But while proceeding with the signing of the certificate with CA I'm unable to get through the parameters. Below is the command for signing certificate openssl ca -config openssl-ca.cnf -policy signing_policy -extensions signing_req -out *{server certificate}* -infiles *{certificate signing request}* {server certificate} I assume is the server.trustore.jks file. But not sure what the value for {certificate signing request} should be. Can someone please guide me through this? In the last step , We need to import self signed certificates and CA cert into keystore. Below are the commands provided in the documentation. keytool -keystore {keystore} -alias CARoot -import -file {CA certificate} I assume {CA certificate} *value would be the cacert.pem that is generated in the steps prior and {keystore} would be server.keystore.jks* keytool -keystore {keystore} -alias localhost -import -file cert-signed. *What is cert-signed in this case?* Can someone please help me with the above steps. Thanks & Regards, Namita
