EJBCA Cloud Azure TLS Certificate Generation Guide

Introduction

This guide is intended to show an administrator of a PrimeKey EJBCA Cloud instance how to generate new Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates.

This EJBCA Cloud Documentation applies for the latest EJBCA Cloud version.

For the latest EJBCA Enterprise documentation, see EJBCA Documentation.

Information on Azure Public IP addressing is available in the Azure User Guide Create, change, or delete a public IP address.

This guide describes how to generate new TLS certificates in EJBCA Cloud.

New TLS certificates are needed in the following circumstances:

EJBCA Cloud instance is shut down within the Azure environment and the Public IP is released by Azure.
An assigned IP is added to the instance in place of the Public IP for persistence.
A custom DNS name is desired.

When using tools such as the ClientToolBox, the following error may be displayed:

"No subject alternative DNS name matching <instance ip> found".

If this is encountered, perform the steps in this guide.
