You would need to do that if you are not presently issuing certs with
the crlDistributionPoints extension field and you want to use
CRLDistributionPointRevocationChecker. There is another component that
supports specifying a static URI to the CRL endpoint,
ResourceCRLRevocationChecker. In either case I had assumed that you
would be using certs issued from a PKI that has some kind of support
for revocation, either CRL or OCSP. I would say that requirement holds
generally. If you're developing a PKI in tandem with rolling out X.509
support in CAS, then you should certainly consider a number of policy
concerns, among them revocation. We have an entire team dedicated to
our PKI; it's a lot of work, largely in crafting policy at a high
level and implementing it in software/systems.
