cells TLS documentation #3732

Open calestyo opened 7 years ago

calestyo commented 7 years ago

There are a number of issues in the release notes and/or .properties documentation about the cells plain/TLS config:

The release notes speak about the non-existent dcache.broker.core.channel.security option.

They also seem to pretty much contradict the docs in the .properites, release notes say:

to none in order to listen only for plain-text communication on dcache.broker.plain.port, to tls in order to listen only for TLS encrypted communication on dcache.broker.tls.port or to none,tls in order to listen for both plain and encrypted communication.

while .properties seem to implies that core domains listen always on plain AND tls but connect in EITHER plain OR core to other core domains:

Along with accepting cell messages on plain and tls mode, a CoreDomain also connects to other available CoreDomains as a client. With this property, a core domain can be configured to use one of plain-text (none) or encrypted(tls) connections when connecting to other.

Cheers, Chris.
