Charles E. Rolke commented on DISPATCH-1903:
--------------------------------------------

This useful feature needs some policy limits to prevent resource exhaustion and 
general abuse. Maybe
 * Maximum per-file size
 * Maximum number of files

Also, the files must be write-only from management. The files obviously must be 
read in context when they are used as expected but it would be more secure if 
the files as-written were unreadable from another management session.

> Remote upload of certificate files for new TLS configurations

> Currently, when using the management protocol to create new SSL-profiles, 
> those profiles must access certificate files that are already placed in the 
> file system.  In other words, in order to create an SSL-profile on a running 
> router, files must first be placed on the file system in a location 
> accessible by the router.  This may be problematic in cases where the router 
> is remote from the managing agent, or when containerization limits access to 
> the router's underlying file system.
> This new feature allows a managing agent to remotely inject files into a 
> running router to be stored in temporary file storage.  These files are 
> usable in sslProfile management entities (by specifying the files without an 
> absolute path).  The temporary files are removed from the file system on 
> router shutdown.
