InfraSecurityConfig (schema)

Name	Description	Type	Notes
_create_time	Timestamp of resource creation	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_create_user	ID of the user who created this resource	string	Readonly
_last_modified_time	Timestamp of last modification	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_last_modified_user	ID of the user who last modified this resource	string	Readonly
_links	References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.	array of ResourceLink	Readonly
_protection	Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.	string	Readonly
_revision	Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.	int
_schema	Schema for this resource	string	Readonly
_self	Link to this resource	SelfResourceLink	Readonly
_system_owned	Indicates system owned resource	boolean	Readonly
ca_signed_only	A flag to indicate whether the server certs are only allowed to be ca-signed. When this flag is set to true (for NDcPP compliance) only ca-signed certificates will be allowed to be applied as server certificates. Since this check has now moved to the compliance-report, enabling this check is no longer required if the NDcPP Security alarms have been enabled.	boolean
crl_checking_enabled	A flag to indicate whether the Java trust-managers check certificate revocation When this flag is set to true, during certificate checking the CRL is fetched and checked whether the certificate is revoked or not. Setting this property to false results in lower security. It is not advisable to import certificate without CRL info while CRL checking is deactivated, and then re-enable CRL checking.	boolean
description	Description of this resource	string	Maximum length: 1024 Sortable
display_name	Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set	string	Maximum length: 255 Sortable
eku_checking_enabled	A flag to indicate whether the Extended Key Usage extension in the certificate is checked. When this flag is set to true, during certificate checking the Extended Key Usage extension is expected to be present, indicating whether the certificate is to be used a client certificate or server certificate. Setting this value to false is not recommended as it leads to lower security and operational risk. Since this check has now moved to the compliance-report, enabling/disabling this flag no longer has any effect when applying certificates.	boolean
id	Unique identifier of this resource	string	Sortable
resource_type	Must be set to the value InfraSecurityConfig	string
tags	Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user	array of Tag	Maximum items: 30

Example Request:

PUT https://<policy-mgr>/policy/api/v1/infra/security-global-config { "ca_signed_only": "true", "clr_checking_enabled": "false", "eku_checking_enabled": "false", }
