============
Cert Manager
============
|prod| integrates the open source project cert-manager.
Cert-manager is a native Kubernetes certificate management controller, that
supports certificate management with external certificate authorities \(CAs\).
nginx-ingress-controller is also integrated with |prod| in support of http-01
challenges from CAs as part of cert-manager certificate requests.
For more information about Cert Manager, see `cert-manager.io
<http://cert-manager.io>`__.

Prerequisites for using Cert Manager
------------------------------------
.. _kubernetes-user-tutorials-cert-manager-ul-rd3-3cw-nlb:
- Ensure that your |prod| administrator has shared the local registry's
public repository's credentials/secret with the namespace where you will
create certificates,. This will allow you to leverage the
``registry.local:9001/public/cert-manager-acmesolver`` image.
- Ensure that your |prod| administrator has enabled use of the
cert-manager apiGroups in your RBAC policies.
