NAME
pki-tps-connector - PKI TPS Connector Configuration

LOCATION
/var/lib/pki/<instance>/conf/tps/CS.cfg

DESCRIPTION
TPS connector provides a mechanism for TPS to communicate with other PKI subsystems. There are three supported connector types: CA, KRA, and TKS. The connectors are defined using properties in the TPS configuration file.

CA CONNECTOR
A CA connector is defined using properties that begin with tps.connector.ca<n> where n is a positive integer indicating the ID of the CA connector.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.enable
This property contains a boolean value indicating whether the connector is enabled.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.host
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the hostname of the CA. In failover configuration, the property contains a list of hostnames and port numbers of the CA subsystems. The format is hostname:port separated by spaces.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.port
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the port number of the CA.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.nickName
This property contains the nickname of the TPS subsystem certificate for SSL client authentication to the CA.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.minHttpConns
This property contains the minimum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.maxHttpConns
This property contains the maximum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.uri.<op>
This property contains the URI to contact CA for the operation <op>. Example ops: enrollment, renewal, revoke, unrevoke, getcert.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.timeout
This property contains the connection timeout.

  tps.connCAList
This property is used for Revocation Routing. It contains a list of ordered ca id's separated by ',' that the revocation attempt should be made to. Example: tps.connCAList=ca1,ca2

  tps.connector.ca<n>.caNickname
This property is used for Revocation Routing. It contains the nickname of the CA signing certificate that represents this ca<n>.

  tps.connector.ca<n>.caSKI
This property is used for Revocation Routing . It contains the Subject Key Identifier of the CA signing certificate of this ca<n>. This value is automatically calculated by TPS once and should not need handling by the administrator.

KRA CONNECTOR
A KRA connector is defined using properties that begin with tps.connector.kra<n> where n is a positive integer indicating the ID of the KRA connector.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.enable
This property contains a boolean value indicating whether the connector is enabled.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.host
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the hostname of the KRA. In failover configuration, the property contains a list of hostnames and port numbers of the KRA subsystems. The format is hostname:port separated by spaces.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.port
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the port number of the KRA.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.nickName
This property contains the nickname of the TPS subsystem certificate for SSL client authentication to the KRA.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.minHttpConns
This property contains the minimum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.maxHttpConns
This property contains the maximum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.uri.<op>
This property contains the URI to contact KRA for the operation <op>. Example ops: GenerateKeyPair, TokenKeyRecovery.

  tps.connector.kra<n>.timeout
This property contains the connection timeout.

TKS CONNECTOR
A TKS connector is defined using properties that begin with tps.connector.tks<n> where n is a positive integer indicating the ID of the TKS connector.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.enable
This property contains a boolean value indicating whether the connector is enabled.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.host
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the hostname of the TKS. In failover configuration, the property contains a list of hostnames and port numbers of the TKS subsystems. The format is hostname:port separated by spaces.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.port
In no-failover configuration, the property contains the port number of the TKS.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.nickName
This property contains the nickname of the TPS subsystem certificate for SSL client authentication to the TKS.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.minHttpConns
This property contains the minimum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.maxHttpConns
This property contains the maximum number of HTTP connections.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.uri.<op>
This property contains the URI to contact TKS for the operation <op>. Example ops: computeRandomData, computeSessionKey, createKeySetData, encryptData.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.timeout
This property contains the connection timeout.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.generateHostChallenge
This property contains a boolean value indicating whether to generate host challenge.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.serverKeygen
This property contains a boolean value indicating whether to generate keys on server side.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.keySet
This property contains the key set to be used on TKS.

  tps.connector.tks<n>.tksSharedSymKeyName
This property contains the shared secret key name.
