Provisioning methods and credentials.zip

Note

We recommend that you view this article in our documentation portal. Not all of our articles render correctly in GitHub.

If you’re trying to work on integrating OTA Connect into your device build, it may be helpful to have a little bit of reference information on how the different provisioning methods work together, and exactly what components are inside credentials.zip.

credentials.zip file format

The following files are present in credentials.zip:

Filename in zip Purpose Used by

api_gateway.url

URL for gateway to Director

garage-sign

treehub.json

URL and OAuth2 authentication for treehub and Uptane repo

garage-sign, garage-push, garage-deploy

client_auth.p12

TLS client credentials for authentication with treehub

garage-push, garage-deploy

autoprov_credentials.p12

TLS client credentials that are required when provisioning devices with shared credentials

aktualizr, aktualizr-cert-provider

autoprov.url

URL for provisioning server

aktualizr, aktualizr-cert-provider

root.json

Initial Uptane root.json (for secure bootstrapping)

garage-sign

targets.pub

Public key for offline Uptane image signing

garage-sign

targets.sec

Private key for offline Uptane image signing

garage-sign

tufrepo.url

URL to Uptane repository

garage-sign

As you can see, the relevant files for the device itself are autoprov_credentials.p12 and autoprov.url.

Configuration options for provisioning with device credentials

When provisioning with device credentials, OTA Connect needs to get various certificates and keys from somewhere. The following table summarizes what is needed, and where it comes from in the HSM.

Configuration option Where it will come from/what it does

Uptane public/private key

Automatically generated by Aktualizr

Uptane primary serial number

Note
The "Fleet Root CA" is the one generated in step 1 of the use a Hardware Security Module to provision with device credentials. instructions.
