Solution: How to Automate the Renewal SSL Certificates using ACME

Objective: Automating the renewal of SSL/TLS certificates for Alteon devices managed by Cyber Controller.

ACME Client: Utilizing 'dehydrated' for managing the lifecycle of certificates via Let's Encrypt Certificate Authority (CA).

Challenge Deployment: Utilizing the HTTP-01 challenge type, deploying and cleaning each domain's challenge to the Alteon devices to validate domain ownership before certificate issuance.

Certificate Provisioning: Automatically provisioning new certificates on designated Alteon devices upon successful renewal.

Logging: Maintaining detailed log files to track and review the last certificates renewal process.

Notifications: Sending email notifications upon completion, detailing success, unchanged or failure of the certificate renewal process.

In the event that Cyber Controller is unavailable, the secondary Cyber Controller server will send an email notification about that issue.

The solution is available on Radware's GitHub.
