Generating Certificates

This script is used to generate the required certs for use with both the client and the mock target.

• CA.crt -> Certificate Authority certificate (a self-signed certificate that signs all the others).
• CA.key -> CA Private key (should be kept very secret).
• client.crt / target.crt -> A client or target certificate that was signed by the CA.
• client.key / target.key -> The private key corresponding to the client or target.
• *.csr -> A certificate signing request. Used to generate certificates.

Simply run the script:

./generate.sh

Then pass the generated certs into the client and target:

Target name

The script generates Target certificates with the name “target.com”

Client Example

./gnoi_reset \
 <...>
-target_name target.com \
-ca /path/to/ca.crt \
-cert /path/to/client.crt \
-key /path/to/client.key

Target Example

./gnoi_target \
 <...>
-ca /path/to/ca.crt \
-cert /path/to/target.crt \
-key /path/to/target.key
