Hello,
at some point long back in the past, I created an issue in GitHub
https://github.com/GEANT/CAT/issues/1 , quoting:
"Some federations have a homogeneous certificate landscape: the
federation operator may have its own special-purpose CA for all of its
clients; or all institutions get certificates from the same commercial CA.
A feature was requested to allow the federation operator to upload the
"default root CA" for their federation; every newly created institution
would then be primed with that CA during enrollment."
I'm ready to implement this; I am only wondering who exactly requested
that and if it's still relevant. I guess the use case would be around
a) national NRO PKI
b) TCS
but can I get a statement that it is /really/ the case that there are
NROs with such a homogeneous landscape? It's fine to reply off-list if
you feel more comfortable with that.
Greetings,
Stefan Winter
