PKI --ESTCA(1)			   strongSwan			  PKI --ESTCA(1)

NAME
     pki --estca - Get CA certificate[s] from an EST server

SYNOPSIS
     pki --estca --url url [--label label] --cacert file [--caout file]
		 [--outform encoding] [--force] [--debug level]
     pki --estca --options file
     pki --estca -h | --help

DESCRIPTION
     This  sub-command	of  pki(1)  gets  CA  certificates via https from an EST
     server using the /cacerts operation of the Enrollment over Secure Transport
     protocol (RFC 7030).

OPTIONS
     -h, --help
	    Print usage information with a summary of the available options.

     -v, --debug level
	    Set debug level, default: 1.

     -+, --options file
	    Read command line options from file.

     -u, --url url
	    URL of the SCEP server.

     -l, --label label
	    Label in the EST server path.

     -C, --cacert file
	    CA certificate in the trust chain used for EST TLS server  signature
	    verification.  Can be used multiple times.

     -c, --caout file
	    If	present,  path	where  the  fetched  root CA certificate file is
	    stored to.	If several CA  certificates  are  downloaded,  then  the
	    value  of  --caout	is used as a template to derive unique filenames
	    (*-1, *-2, etc.) for the intermediate or sub CA certificates.  If  a
	    file suffix is missing, then depending on the value of --outform ei-
	    ther  .der	(the default) or .pem is automatically appended.  If the
	    --caout option is missing and --outform is set to pem then a PEM-en-
	    coded CA certificate bundle is written to stdout.

     -f, --outform encoding
	    Encoding of the created certificate file. Either der (ASN.1 DER)  or
	    pem (Base64 PEM), defaults to der.

     -F, --force
	    Force overwrite of existing files.

EXAMPLES
     To save some typing work the following command line options are stored in a
     est.opt file:

     --url https://pki.strongswan.org:8443
     --cacert tlsca.crt
     --cacert tlsca-1.crt

     NOTE: For a successful HTTPS connection, trust must be established into the
     EST  server certificate. The TLS trust chain including the root CA certifi-
     cate and optionally intermediate CA certificates must be given using multi-
     ple --cacert options.

     An EST server sends a root CA and an intermediate CA certificate:

     pki --estca --options est.opt --caout myca.crt

     negotiated TLS 1.3 using suite TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
     received TLS server certificate 'C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=pki.strongswan.org'
       using certificate "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=pki.strongswan.org"
       using trusted intermediate ca certificate "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=strongSwan Issuing CA"
       using trusted ca certificate "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=strongSwan Root CA"
       reached self-signed root ca with a path length of 1
     Root CA cert "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=strongSwan Root CA"

       SHA1  : 8e:f3:78:b0:34:a6:c1:6a:7b:c6:f5:91:eb:e5:46:9b:0d:0a:a7:ba (jvN4sDSmwWp7xvWR6+VGmw0Kp7o)

     Root CA cert is trusted, valid until Aug 12 15:51:34 2032, 'myca.crt'

       serial: 74:f9:7e:72:7d:b8:fd:f2:c6:e5:1b:fa:37:f9:cb:87:bf:9c:ea:e2
       SHA256: a3:5b:4b:12:d5:8f:68:7b:05:11:08:27:f5:42:62:b8:b5:01:1b:19:37:9c:28:78:5d:37:08:69:6a:8c:07:bf
       SHA1  : 8c:e6:67:67:c2:23:89:7b:d0:bc:b1:50:d2:1c:bc:8d:8d:69:15:11 (jOZnZ8IjiXvQvLFQ0hy8jY1pFRE)
       using certificate "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=strongSwan Issuing CA"
       using trusted ca certificate "C=CH, O=strongSwan Project, CN=strongSwan Root CA"
       reached self-signed root ca with a path length of 0
     Sub CA cert is trusted, valid until Aug 12 15:51:34 2027, 'myca-1.crt'

     NOTE: The trustworthiness of the root CA certificate is either verified au-
     tomatically if the Root CA certificate of the TLS trust chain is  the  same
     as  that  of the Issuing CA. Otherwise trust has to be established manually
     by verifying the SHA256 or SHA1 fingerprint of the DER-encoded  certificate
     that is e.g. listed on the official PKI website or by some other means.

     The  stored  certificate  files in DER format can be overwritten by PEM-en-
     coded versions with:

     pki --estca --options est.opt --caout myca.crt --outform pem --force

     A CA certificate bundle in PEM format is written to stdout:

     pki --estca --options est.opt --outform pem > cacerts.pem
