ACME

ACME is Automated Certificate Management Environment, it is a certificate management protocol targeting Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) clients which require digital certificates to prove their authenticity. ACME also helps the clients in acquiring associated CA certificates.

  • There should be an agent(avx_vendor_cert_acme_agent) up and running for ACME in AppViewX.
  • This ACME plugin can either be in HTTPS or HTTP, but it needs a HTTP gateway running in order to communicate with the client.
  • In order to make that HTTP gateway up and running go to /home/appviewx/appviewx/avxgw/avxgw-profile.json. Enable the HTTP profile and restart the gateway.
  • It is highly recommended to OFF the 'Approval Required' flag in Menu > Inventory > Certificate > Policy page.
  • A valid agent settings should be available in Menu > Inventory > Certificate > Settings.
