rhtyd commented on issue #2239: CLOUDSTACK-9993: Securing Agents Communications
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2239#issuecomment-323718422
 
 
   @wido in current implementation -- all agent-mgmt server connections are 
encrypted and SSL enabled, based on a random cert that the mgmt server creates, 
stores and uses from `cloudmanagement.keystore` reading/updating from 
ssl.keystore global setting; and when agents connect to the mgmt server they 
use a trust-all-manager to trust any certificate presented to them. So, all 
cloudstack env have the connections encrypted, however not authenticated and 
secured in one or two-way SSL.
   
   With this new work/PR -- for existing environments, after upgrade the auth 
strictness enforcement will be `'false`, however newer hosts/agents will be 
provisioned to use this new system to have CA certs etc stored in agents so 
they will have more secure SSL authentication, however, mgmt server will not 
perform additional trust validations and it will allow any clients (like it 
used to now).
