FR: Generate config for shared root of trust between clusters

Open ZackButcher opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

In order for services to use mTLS across clusters, Citadel instances in each cluster need to be configured to sign with keys in a common trust domain. The set up required today is rather involved. It would be nice to package up the cert creation and per-cluster config generation into a single tool.

Yep, in fact I thought there was an issue for this already. Did a user prompt this, i.e. is there a deadline?

No, was chatting about Shriram with it re https://github.com/istio/istio.io/pull/2847. Also good for you to generally be aware of this PR, we added some stuff upstream in Istio that'll simplify the config CW needs to generate.
