Andreas Jaeger 40d3d03f11 admin-guide-cloud-rst: Split up identity 
Move identity chapter from one very large page into many smaller ones
like it was previously in the DocBook XML output.

This creates changes to heading of all files as well as creation of new
files.

Compare the result of this build with:
Current RST file:

Configure the Identity service with SSL

You can configure the Identity service to support two-way SSL.

You must obtain the x509 certificates externally and configure them.

The Identity service provides a set of sample certificates in the examples/pki/certs and examples/pki/private directories:

cacert.pem

Certificate Authority chain to validate against.

ssl_cert.pem

Public certificate for Identity service server.

middleware.pem

Public and private certificate for Identity service middleware/client.

cakey.pem

Private key for the CA.

ssl_key.pem

Private key for the Identity service server.

Note

You can choose names for these certificates. You can also combine public/private keys in the same file, if you wish. These certificates are provided as an example.

Client authentication with keystone-all

When running keystone-all, the server can be configured to enable SSL with client authentication using the following instructions. Modify the [eventlet_server_ssl] section in the etc/keystone.conf file. The following SSL configuration example uses the included sample certificates:

[eventlet_server_ssl]
enable = True
certfile = <path to keystone.pem>
keyfile = <path to keystonekey.pem>
ca_certs = <path to ca.pem>
cert_required = True

Options

  • enable

    True enables SSL. Default is False.

  • certfile

    Path to the Identity service public certificate file.

  • keyfile

    Path to the Identity service private certificate file. If you include the private key in the certfile, you can omit the keyfile.

  • ca_certs

    Path to the CA trust chain.

  • cert_required

    Requires client certificate. Default is False.

When running the Identity service as a WSGI service in a web server such as Apache httpd, this configuration is done in the web server instead. In this case the options in the [eventlet_server_ssl] section are ignored.
