Goal

The SignatureRequest call is intended to provide a straightforward way to request the signature of a certificate by sending a CSR (Certificate Signature Request) to a signing authority.

Internal Process

This function will proceed to exchange a CertificateManagementRequest (catm.007.01.02) (and hopefully, a corresponding CertificateManagementResponse) with the given TMS host, valorising fields with the given parameters. This function does not allow the full flexibility of Nexo’s CertificateManagementRequest (catm.008.01.02) - it is meant for a simplified usage, in a specific recurrent context.

Usage

SignatureResult signatureResult = AmadisConfigurationModule.SignatureRequest(provider, configuration, target, csr, pki);

Where:

provider → a TMSConnectionProvider object

configuration → a basic Arkos-format configuration (see Required Configuration Fields)

target → the target for this operation (in most cases, an ip:port string)

csr→ the CSR for which a signature is requested, in a format known by the TMS system

pki → the PKI for this operation

signatureResult → a SignatureResult object containing one of the following possiblities:

signatureResult.mSuccess == false

signatureResult.mSuccess == true

Required configuration fields

The following fields are required under the TerminalConfiguration top level element
