>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-1084
>             Project: Apache Knox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Jesus Alvarez
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: Future
>
>
> In some multi-homed network environments, a knox gateway may have hostnames 
> such as:
> {code}
> 123-4-5-5-internal.example.com
> pub2-west-re.example.com
> {code}
> While generating certificates in these types of environments, one approach to 
> having host verification resolve on the external and internal CNs is the use 
> of subjectAltNames http://wiki.cacert.org/FAQ/subjectAltName
> {code}
>  openssl x509 -in temp.crt -text -noout
> Certificate:
>     Data:
>         Version: 3 (0x2)
>         Serial Number: 123456 (0x1e240)
>     Signature Algorithm: sha256WithRSAEncryption
>         Issuer: CN=pub2-west-re.example.com, O=EX, C=US
>         Validity
>                 ...
>         Subject: CN=pub2-west-re.example.com, O=EX, C=US
>         Subject Public Key Info:
>             Public Key Algorithm: rsaEncryption
>                 Public-Key: (4096 bit)
>                 Modulus:
>                          ...
>         X509v3 extensions:
>             X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: 
>                 DNS:123-4-5-5-internal.example.com
> {code}
> It would be useful if knoxcli could be extended to support multiple 
> hostnames, ex:
> {code}
> bin/knoxcli.sh create-cert --hostname pub2-west-re.example.com --hostname 
> 123-4-5-5-internal.example.com
> {code}
> Where the first name will continue to be the Issuer and Subject, and the 
> 2nd-Nth hostname will be added as a Subject Alternate Name DNS entry.
