You can use custom SSL certificate on your hosts to enable encrypted communications between Satellite Server, Capsule Server, and hosts. Before deploying it to your hosts, ensure that you have configured the custom SSL certificate to your Satellite Server.

After you configure Satellite to use a custom SSL certificate, you must deploy the certificate to hosts registered to Satellite.

Procedure

  • Update the SSL certificate on each host: 

    # dnf install http://satellite.example.com/pub/katello-ca-consumer-latest.noarch.rpm

To reset the custom SSL certificate on your hosts to default self-signed certificate, you must re-register your hosts through Global Registration.
