Understanding SSL/TLS automation modules

Orchestration gateways enable the management of certificate automation on supported endpoints where certificates can be installed, such as servers, keystores (P12, JKS), or PEM files.

When endpoints are added to an orchestration gateway, they are registered on the SSL/TLS Automation Modules page in SCM and become available for certificate automation tasks.

Orchestration gateway endpoints can be managed on the Integrations SSL/TLS Automation Modules page.

The following table describes the details and controls of the SSL/TLS Automation Modules page.

Column	Description
Name	The name of the endpoint.
Version	The version of the endpoint, if applicable.
Type	The type of the endpoint, based on the platform or certificate storage format. The possible values are: Apache Apache Tomcat F5 BIG-IP Microsoft IIS Nginx P12 JKS PEM
Status	The current status of the endpoint. The possible values are: Active — The endpoint is connected and available. Init — The endpoint has been added but is not yet fully configured.
Organization	The organization associated with the endpoint.
Keystore	The keystore associated with the endpoint.
Orchestration Gateway	The name of the orchestration gateway that the endpoint is associated with.
