Description
| *** Certificate Authority (CA) path file (optional) |
The term "Certificate Authority (CA) path" is used a couple of times in this document, but nothing is stated on what it refers to and what it should be. This is particularly important given that this is a value to be provided by administrators of Anypoint CloudHub 2.0 and impacts whether certificates will be considered valid by clients. Searching for this term's definition is also relatively unsuccessful, often providing simple tutorials on what Certified Authorities are rather than a clear definition of what the "CA path".
From testing, it appears as though this "CA path" value is intended to be a certificate bundle containing the signing authorities on the public certificate. For example, if we have a certificate chain of Domain > Intermediary > Root, then the "Public certificate" would contain Domain and the "CA path" would contain Intermediary > Root. A clear definition or example of this would go a long way in giving confidence to administrators that they are following the best practice for their environment.
Would it be possible to provide such a definition of the "Certificate Authority (CA) path" somewhere on this page?
