4.4 CERT - Certificate Management

The package CERT serves the purpose of managing certificates on the fli4l. Currently, the package is restricted to providing the necessary TLS root certificates in order to be able to establish HTTP connections secured by TLS on the fli4l. This is needed e.g. by the DYNDNS package, because some interfaces for updating the external IP address forcibly require a secured HTTP connection.

OPT_CERT

This option enables the certificate manager.

Default setting: OPT_CERT='no'

Example: OPT_CERT='yes'

OPT_CERT_X509

This option enables the management of X.509 certificates.


Important: Note that you also need to enable OPT_OPENSSL='yes' in the TOOLS package.

Default setting: OPT_CERT_X509='no'

Example: OPT_CERT_X509='yes'

CERT_X509_MOZILLA

This variable controls the installation of the X.509 certificate collection which is deployed with the Mozilla Firefox browser. Consequently, it can only be used with OPT_CERT_X509='yes'.

Default setting: CERT_X509_MOZILLA='no'

Example: CERT_X509_MOZILLA='yes'
