Chapter 7. Enabling SSL/TLS on overcloud public endpoints By default, the overcloud uses unencrypted endpoints for the overcloud services. To enable SSL/TLS in your overcloud, Red Hat recommends that you use a certificate authority (CA) solution. When you use a CA solution, you have production ready solutions such as a certificate renewals, certificate revocation lists (CRLs), and industry accepted cryptography. For information on using Red Hat Identity Manager (IdM) as a CA, see Implementing TLS-e with Ansible . You can use the following manual process to enable SSL/TLS for Public API endpoints only, the Internal and Admin APIs remain unencrypted. You must also manually update SSL/TLS certificates if you do not use a CA. For more information, see Manually updating SSL/TLS certificates . Prerequisites Network isolation to define the endpoints for the Public API. The openssl-perl package is installed. You have an SSL/TLS certificate. For more information see Configuring custom SSL/TLS certificates . 7.1. Enabling SSL/TLS To enable SSL/TLS in your overcloud, you must create an environment file that contains parameters for your SSL/TLS certiciates and private key. Procedure Copy the enable-tls.yaml environment file from the heat template collection: Edit this file and make the following changes for these parameters: SSLCertificate Copy the contents of the certificate file ( server.crt.pem ) into the SSLCertificate parameter: Important The certificate contents require the same indentation level for all new lines. SSLIntermediateCertificate If you have an intermediate certificate, copy the contents of the intermediate certificate into the SSLIntermediateCertificate parameter: Important The certificate contents require the same indentation level for all new lines. SSLKey Copy the contents of the private key ( server.key.pem ) into the SSLKey parameter: Important The private key contents require the same indentation level for all new lines. 7.2. Injecting a root certificate If the certificate signer is not in the default trust store on the overcloud image, you must inject the certificate authority into the overcloud image. Procedure Copy the inject-trust-anchor-hiera.yaml environment file from the heat template collection: Edit this file and make the following changes for these parameters: CAMap Lists each certificate authority content (CA) to inject into the overcloud. The overcloud requires the CA files used to sign the certificates for both the undercloud and the overcloud. Copy the contents of the root certificate authority file ( ca.crt.pem ) into an entry. For example, your CAMap parameter might look like the following: Important The certificate authority contents require the same indentation level for all new lines. You can also inject additional CAs with the CAMap parameter. 7.3. Configuring DNS endpoints If you use a DNS hostname to access the overcloud through SSL/TLS, copy the /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/predictable-placement/custom-domain.yaml file into the /home/stack/templates directory. Note It is not possible to redeploy with a TLS-everywhere architecture if this environment file is not included in the initial deployment. Configure the host and domain names for all fields, adding parameters for custom networks if needed: CloudDomain the DNS domain for hosts. CloudName The DNS hostname of the overcloud endpoints. CloudNameCtlplane The DNS name of the provisioning network endpoint. CloudNameInternal The DNS name of the Internal API endpoint. CloudNameStorage The DNS name of the storage endpoint. CloudNameStorageManagement The DNS name of the storage management endpoint. Procedure Use one of the following parameters to add the DNS servers to use: DEFAULT/undercloud_nameservers %SUBNET_SECTION%/dns_nameservers 7.4. Adding environment files during overcloud creation Use the -e option with the deployment command openstack overcloud deploy to include environment files in the deployment process. Add the environment files from this section in the following order: The environment file to enable SSL/TLS ( enable-tls.yaml ) The environment file to set the DNS hostname ( custom-domain.yaml ) The environment file to inject the root certificate authority ( inject-trust-anchor-hiera.yaml ) The environment file to set the public endpoint mapping: If you use a DNS name for accessing the public endpoints, use /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/ssl/tls-endpoints-public-dns.yaml If you use a IP address for accessing the public endpoints, use /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/ssl/tls-endpoints-public-ip.yaml Procedure Use the following deployment command snippet as an example of how to include your SSL/TLS environment files: 7.5. Manually Updating SSL/TLS Certificates Complete the following steps if you are using your own SSL/TLS certificates that are not auto-generated from the TLS everywhere (TLS-e) process. Procedure Edit your heat templates with the following content: Edit the enable-tls.yaml file and update the SSLCertificate , SSLKey , and SSLIntermediateCertificate parameters. If your certificate authority has changed, edit the inject-trust-anchor-hiera.yaml file and update the CAMap parameter. Rerun the deployment command: On the director, run the following command for each Controller:
