ActiveMQ Artemis Example

# ActiveMQ Artemis MQTT CRL Example

To run the example, simply type mvn verify from this directory, or mvn -PnoServer verify if you want to start and create the server manually.

This example shows you how to configure 2-way SSL with CRL along with 2 different connections, one with a valid certificate and another with a revoked certificate.

To configure 2-way SSL with CRL you need to configure the acceptor as follows:

    <acceptor name="mqtt">tcp://0.0.0.0:1883?protocols=MQTT;sslEnabled=true;keyStorePath=server-keystore.jks;keyStorePassword=securepass;trustStorePath=client-ca-truststore.jks;keyStorePassword=securepass;crlPath=other-client-crl.pem;needClientAuth=true</acceptor>

In the server-side URL, the `server-keystore.jks` is the key store file holding the server's key certificate. The `client-ca-truststore.jks` is the file holding the certificates which the server trusts. The `other-client-crl.pem` is the file holding the revoked certificates. Notice also the `sslEnabled` and `needClientAuth` parameters which enable SSL and require clients to present their own certificate respectively.

The various keystore files are generated using the following commands. Keep in mind that each common name should be different and the passwords should be `securepass`.

    #!/bin/bash
    set -e

    KEY_PASS=securepass
    STORE_PASS=securepass
    CA_VALIDITY=365000
    VALIDITY=36500

## Create the ca.conf file:

    [ ca ]
    default_ca      = CA_default

    [ CA_default ]
    dir             = ./
    database        = $dir/openssl-database
    crlnumber       = $dir/openssl-crlnumber
    default_md      = default

## Continue with the following commands:

    # Export the key of the server CA:
    # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    openssl pkcs12 -in client-ca-keystore.p12 -nodes -nocerts -out client-ca.pem -password pass:$STORE_PASS

    # Create crl with the other client cert:
    # -------------------------------------------------------
    > openssl-database
    echo 00 > openssl-crlnumber
    openssl ca -config openssl.conf -revoke other-client.crt -keyfile client-ca.pem -cert client-ca.crt
    openssl ca -config openssl.conf -gencrl -keyfile client-ca.pem -cert client-ca.crt -out other-client-crl.pem -crldays $VALIDITY
