Re: [pkix] CA Testing - how to ?



So how do you test that the production PKI works exactly as the test
PKI if they are two separate setup ? You just rely on the fact that the
configurations are the same ? Don't you have to assert the production
environment somehow ?

Thanks for sharing :)

I issue certificates for DOCSIS certified Cable Modems.  I know that there
are several different CA software vendors who support these certificates.
The certs follow a well defined set of extensions and flag definitions.  We
interoperate fairly well.

BTW, for development and testing purposes, DOCSIS defines a separate PKI.
This way there is no problem with knowing what is test and what is
production.
