  • Route RPKI validation April 1st, 2022
    RPKI is a security framework by which network owners can validate and secure the critical route updates or Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) announcements between public Internet networks. BGP is essentially the central nervous system of the Internet and one of its fundamental building blocks. The main function of BGP is to facilitate efficient routing between Autonomous Systems (AS), by building and maintaining the Internet routing table. The Internet routing table is effectively the navigation system of the Internet and without it, traffic would be unable to flow between its constituent networks. Unfortunately, routing equipment alone cannot distinguish between legitimate and malicious routing announcements,...

PowerVault Manager ME5024 – Custom Certificates Creation and Installation

Caparrelli Paolo Hardware 3 December 2024

The first step is to generate the CSR, which will be displayed on the screen and can be copied into the Certificate Authority (CA) to request the certificate.
Note: Avoid using CTRL+C, as the terminal may log out.

CSR Creation on Controller A

create certificate-signing-request subject "/C=US/ST=NY/L=NewYork/O=ExampleCorp/OU=IT/CN=pvm-controllerA.example.com" extensions "/subjectAltName=DNS:pvm-controllerA.example.com,DNS:pvm-controllerA,DNS:pvm-controllerB.example.com,DNS:pvm-controllerB"

CSR Creation on Controller B

create certificate-signing-request subject "/C=US/ST=NY/L=NewYork/O=ExampleCorp/OU=IT/CN=pvm-controllerB.example.com" extensions "/subjectAltName=DNS:pvm-controllerB.example.com,DNS:pvm-controllerB,DNS:pvm-controllerA.example.com,DNS:pvm-controllerA"

Upload Procedure via SFTP

Use a Linux system with the necessary certificates.
Perform the operation on the controllers one at a time, restarting the service on each controller after completing the operation.

Connection to Controller A

sftp -P 1022 Admin@pvm-controllerA.example.com

Upload the certificates:

put controllerA.cer cert-file:usr
put RootCA_Example.cer cert-file:trust

Activate the certificates and restart the service:

activate certificate service web usr_cert_a
restart mc a full

Connection to Controller B

After Controller A is fully operational, repeat the procedure for Controller B:

sftp -P 1022 Admin@pvm-controllerB.example.com

Upload the certificates:

put controllerB.cer cert-file:usr
put RootCA_Example.cer cert-file:trust

Activate the certificates and restart the service:

activate certificate service web usr_cert_b
restart mc b full

Removing Certificates

If needed, remove the certificates from the controllers using the following commands:

remove certificate usr_cert_a
remove certificate usr_cert_b

Note: This procedure includes Subject Alternative Names (SANs) for both controllers, ensuring a seamless configuration even after restarts.
