Embedded PEMs
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Rather than including an absolute path to a PEM file (for certs or keys), the
|
||||
PEM itself can be included inside the settings file and referenced directly.
|
||||
This allows 8021x network provisioning using a single file without any
|
||||
references to certificates/keys on the system.
|
||||
|
||||
An embedded PEM can appear anywhere in the settings file using the following
|
||||
format (this example the PEM is named 'my_ca_cert'):
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block::
|
||||
|
||||
[@pem@my_ca_cert]
|
||||
----- BEGIN CERTIFICATE -----
|
||||
<PEM data>
|
||||
----- END CERTIFICATE -----
|
||||
|
||||
After this special group tag its as simple as pasting in a PEM file including
|
||||
the BEGIN/END tags. Now 'my_ca_cert' can be used to reference the certificate
|
||||
elsewhere in the settings file by prefixing the value with 'embed:'
|
||||
|
||||
EAP-TLS-CACert=embed:my_ca_cert
|
||||
|
||||
This is not limited to CA Certs either. Client certs, client keys (encrypted
|
||||
or not), and certificate chains can be included.
