The one year cert ones into play later this year and only for certs issues after a certain date, October I think.
I’d go with two year certs if I was doing now. Which we will be soon. Heck, I’d be renewing certs before their expiry date as much as possible to buy another year. I’m hoping a SP for v11.5 comes out that supports let’s encrypt. But I doubt it.

And true, a satellite server could alleviate it all, but you are talking major changes for the CUCM team, and then the CUC team, etc. I'd love for it to happen, but we have some hurdles, and I'm sure this has been discussed amongst the developers and the BUs. With Apple changing and advising certs for 1 year, I had a bigger customer just tell me that they are adopting 1 year certs as the standard. I'm about to renew their entire cluster of 18 nodes (across all of the apps) for their certs, and they will be 1 year certs. For a 24/7 operation, that's a pain, but, more work for us I guess.

But then again, they can just spend the money on public certs. And also, you mentioned the challenge of updating certs every 90 days and the service restarts, however, with the way Expressway implemented it, the renewals are automatic and there is no service interruption at all.

There was/is no easy way to push an internal CA cert to those devices. That's the whole reason we push for 3rd party everywhere, so that the C level folks on their smart phones didn't get an alert. I'd really like to see let's encrypt enabled on all of the apps, but that is challenging, updating certs every 90 days, restarting services, etc. Plus, the whole thing of the Acme process needing to be available into the application to validate.

If it was even a self-signed cert, we could atleast import it to E, but it's not even that. It's some invalid bogus cert in there. Why? I have seen the following: 1. publicly sign it (name cheap has dirt cheap certs) 2. get a private ca installed because just like you need a network, a server, licensing, phones, an internet connection, etc. it's apart of the solution 3. sign it yourself with any ca you want to include the one running on your home computer, and just don't tell anyone what you did because you setup it for 34 years and it wont matter by then anyway (ok, just kidding here...or am I?)

Question, what do you do for Expressway Core if you don’t have an internal CA to sign the EXPC (meaning no internal root cert to upload to EXPE to establish the traversal zone trust)?

Here are my cliff notes: Reference Document: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/expressway/config_guide/X12-5/exwy_b_certificate-creation-use-deployment-guide/exwy_b_certificate-creation-use-deployment-guide_chapter_0100.html High Level Steps: 1. Expressway 12.5.7 to avoid ACMEv1 vs ACMEv2 registration issues (https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCvr82346) 2. For your Unified CM registrations domains don’t use parent domain only (E.g., company.com<http://company.com>), switch to CollabEdgeDNS format instead (E.g., collab-edge.company.com<http://collab-edge.company.com>), because you’ll need that in the next step 3. DNS A records for the Expressway-E FQDN and the CM registration domains 4. Upload the root and intermediates for Let’s Encrypt (needed on both Expressway-E and Expressway-C) (certs are linked in documentation) 5. Enable the ACME client on Expressway-E and supply any email address you want to link to this registration (This creates your account with Let’s Encrypt) 6. Generate a new CSR (Server Certificate Only, Domain Cert Was Not Needed) 7. Click button to Submit CSR to ACME 8. Click button to Deploy New Certificate on Expressway-E (documentation states this is non-service impacting) 9. Setup the automatic scheduler so you never have to deal with this again 10.

It is a cluster with 2 E’s and 2 C’s currently at v 12.5.7 using for MRA. I have been managing them, installing updates, troubleshooting etc. The public Edge cert is up for renewal. Can anyone provide advice on renewing this cert? I am planning on just renewing with the same cert provider, but was interested in if there is anything to watch out for. Example, will there be a service interruption when replacing the cert? Or just install the new cert/pk and rest easy? Thanks in advance.
