SecureRelay sample certificates to be expired by Thursday November 4th 2021 00:59:59

Problem

Sample certificates for SecureRelay were delivered with product packages sometime ago.


Those sample certificates appears to be used by some of our customers


The expiration date for the sample certificates is November 4th 2021


To verify if you are using Axway certificates and the expiration date, you can use the following command:
openssl x509 -in SecureRelayCA.pem -noout -text



Resolution


Generate your own new certificates (cer/pem extension for the CA and p12 for private):



- By using a tool of your choice (OpenSSL, XCA...) or from a Certification Authority
- One CA (Certification Authority) certificate
- One User certificate signed by the CA for the router agent (client certificate)
- One user certificate signed by the CA for the master agent (server certificate)


The certificate authority must have at least the following parameters:

X509v3 Basic Constraints: CA:TRUE and X509v3 Key Usage: Certificate Sign.

The user certificate (for both Secure Relay RA and MA) must have at least the following parameters: X509v3 Key Usage: Digital Signature, Key Encipherment and Key Agreement

Check your product's documentation to update parameters related to SecureRelay
