An ACME client creates an account with an ACME server and submits a certificate order. The server responds with a set of challenges for the client to complete to prove control over identifiers (domain names) in the certificate. Once the client successfully completes these challenges, it submits a certificate signing request (CSR) and the server issues a certificate. -The most interesting part of all of this is the challenge – where the client proves control over an identifier. No single standard way exists to "prove control" over an "identifier", so the core ACME specification makes this an extension point.

Smallstep supports all the popular ACME challenges including DNS, HTTP, ALPN, IP, and EAB configurations. ### ACME challenge verification When public ACME Certificate Authorities (CA) like Let's Encrypt issue certificates to clients in the Web PKI, the CA depends heavily on public DNS for client verification. To get a certificate, a client must prove to the CA that it either directly controls the public DNS records for a domain (for the DNS-01 challenge type) or controls the IP address pointed to by public DNS records (for the HTTP-01 and TLS-ALPN-01 challenge types). diff --git a/certificate-manager/basic-ops.mdx b/certificate-manager/basic-ops.mdx index 043d9f6a..8c277261 100644 --- a/certificate-manager/basic-ops.mdx +++ b/certificate-manager/basic-ops.mdx @@ -23,7 +23,7 @@ This tutorial covers: ### Before you begin This tutorial assumes you have created a Smallstep Team and a Certificate Manager Authority using the steps in [Getting Started](./getting-started.mdx). -### Step 1 - Create a test certificate +### 1.Create a test certificate With an Authority created and your local client configured, you can create a test certificate by running the `step ca certificate` command. @@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ In this command, we are asking the CA to create a certificate with the following When you run this command, it will envoke the `authority-admin` provisioner and start a single sign-on flow via the Smallstep console.

While there are many tools available, in this exercise, we chose to use Terraform and Puppet for provisioning. - -Before getting started with the provisioning process, you need to configure AWS (account credentials and permissions), SSH, and Terraform. - -### 1. Clone `step-aws-emojivoto` - -Clone the repository that has puppet and terraform files that you will use later: - -```shell -git clone https://github.com/smallstep/step-aws-emojivoto.git -``` - - -### 2. Set up AWS CLI - -Install and configure the AWS CLI. AWS has instructions for installing the CLI on various platforms at: [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-install.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-install.html) - -Once installed, get your AWS credentials from your account or AWS IAM depending on what you're using and follow the interactive steps of the `aws configure` command. The [AWS documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-configure.html) has detailed instructions on how to get AWS credentials. - -Make sure the credentials granted from the IAM policies include _AmazonEC2FullAccess_, _AmazonVPCFullAccess_, and _AmazonRoute53FullAccess_ (broad permissions) or at the minimum permissions as per the [policy file included in the repo](https://github.com/smallstep/step-aws-emojivoto/blob/master/policy.json). - -```shell-session nocopy -$ aws configure -AWS Access Key ID []: ****************UJ7U -AWS Secret Access Key []: ****************rUg8 -Default region name []: us-west-1 -Default output format []: json - -$ aws s3 ls -# Should list S3 buckets if the account has any -2017-10-26 13:50:39 smallstep-not-a-real-bucket -2017-10-26 15:43:20 smallstep-fake-bucket -2018-04-09 17:25:18 smallstep-nobody-home -``` - -### 3. Generate a SSH key pair - -Terraform requires a key pair to be used for provisioning EC2 machine instances. Any key pair available in the respective region will work as long as the local Terraform/Puppet process has access to the key pair's private key. Please see the [AWS EC2 Key Pairs documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-key-pairs.html) for details on how to manage key pairs in AWS. - -The EC2 key pair will likely be available as a single file in _PEM_ format. Use the following commands to convert the _PEM_ and place the resulting files in locations where Terraform and Puppet can locate them. - -```shell-session nocopy -$ chmod 400 aws-e2e-howto.pem -# We will need the public key in terraform config -$ ssh-keygen -f aws-e2e-howto.pem -y > ~/.ssh/terraform.pub -# The private key is already in the correct format -$ cp aws-e2e-howto.pem ~/.ssh/terraform -# New files only readable by owner (not encrypted on disk!) -$ chmod 400 ~/.ssh/terraform* -``` - -**Note**: it's not required to use key pairs generated by AWS. `ssh-keygen` or `step` will work if you are familiar with or prefer local key generation. - -### 4. Run Terraform - -Terraform uses a backend -hosted by [HashiCorp](https://app.terraform.io/session) -to store managed infrastructure state -and manage concurrency locks -that allow only one team member -to perform changes at a time. -The CLI needs a user configuration -as outlined below. -Create a user account and organization -at [app.terraform.io](https://app.terraform.io/session) -and get a user token. -For more details, -see [HashiCorp's Terraform CLI docs](https://www.terraform.io/docs/commands/cli-config.html). - -**Note**: terraform won't strictly require a backend when being used by a single developer/operator - -```shell-session nocopy -$ cat ~/.terraformrc -credentials "app.terraform.io" { - token = "" -} -``` - -Once the _~/.terraformrc_ is in place, the Terraform backend needs to be initialized. Before running `terraform init`, Terraform needs to be configured with the proper workplace, organization, and SSH public key. - -```shell-session nocopy -diff --git a/aws-emojivoto/emojivoto.tf b/aws-emojivoto/emojivoto.tf -index b510dcb..33ff92d 100644 ---- a/aws-emojivoto/emojivoto.tf -+++ b/aws-emojivoto/emojivoto.tf -@@ -1,9 +1,9 @@ - terraform { - backend "remote" { -- organization = "Smallstep" -+ organization = ""\n - workspaces { -- name = "Emojivoto" -+ name = "" - } - } - } -@@ -17,7 +17,7 @@ provider "aws" { - # Create an SSH key pair to connect to our instances - resource "aws_key_pair" "terraform" { - key_name = "terraform-key" -- public_key = "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQCVEhUwiAivgdFuu5rOv8ArAMqTA6N56yd5RA+uHdaC0e4MM3TYhUOwox0fV+opE3OKLYdG2+mF/6Z4k8PgsBxLpJxdQ9XHut3A9WoqCEANVfZ7dQ0mgJs1MijIAbVg1kXgYTg/2iFN6FCO74ewAJAL2e8GqBDRkwIueKbphmO5U0mK3d/nnLK0QSFYgQGFGFHvXkeQKus+625IHifat/GTZZmhCxZBcAKzaAWB8dSaZGslaKsixy3EGiY5Gqdi5tQvt+obxZ59o4Jk352YlxhlUSxoxpeOyCiBZkexZgm+0MbeBrDuOMwg/tpcUiJ0/lVomx+dQuIX6ciKIuwnvDhx" -+ public_key = "" - } - - variable "ami" { -``` - -Once the AWS CLI, Terraform CLI, and definitions are in place, you can initialize the workspace on the Terraform backend: - -```shell-session nocopy -$ terraform init - -Initializing the backend... - -Successfully configured the backend "remote"!
