Hi Christian,

interesting tool, but how could it help for an automated mass certificate (self) deployment to x-thousand devices.

Best Regards

Markus

Tobias, Jason,



thanks for your fast reply and precise explanation. Unfortunately, AD CS does not provide CMP or EST and given that SCEP originally only supported RSA I doubt that the AD CS NDES (SCEP) supports ECDSA anyway.



We will have to look for a different way to mass deploy (and renew) certificates, maybe the AD CS Certificate Enrollment Webservices.



Best Regards



Markus

   Hi,




The SCEP protocol doesn't support elliptic curve algorithms — It's RSA-only.



   Just for reference, SCEP, as defined in the latest version of the draft,

   doesn't seem have that limitation anymore [1].  (strongSwan's scepclient

   is, of course, based on version 11 of the old draft, so...)



   Regards,

   Tobias
