             Summary: Provide utility to verify configured security settings 
and certificates
                 Key: NIFI-3691
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3691
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Configuration
            Reporter: Aldrin Piri


It would be helpful to provide a utility that could analyze 
keystores/truststores to verify compatibility and expected behavior with 
configured security settings such as two way SSL (right hostname, alias, etc).  
The idea is that as a diagnostic tool, we could provide users with some help to 
verify and troubleshoot any issues that may exist with certificates outside of 
more expensive change/restart loops with NiFi.  As a follow-on, it would be 
helpful to get a listing of key properties about the configured 
keystore/truststore or files provided.  An extension of this might additionally 
setup a client/server test with the utility between instances, again, to verify 
correct operation without doing so in NiFi itself as suggested by the parent 
ticket.

It would be nice to provide this as part of the NiFi release and accessible via 
nifi.sh.  By extension, the functionality could also appear in the TLS toolkit.
