Elasticsearch：如何创建 Elasticsearch PEM 和/或 P12 证书？
你是否希望使用 SSL/TLS 证书来保护你的 Elasticsearch 部署？ 在本文中，我们将指导你完成为 Elasticsearch 创建 PEM 和 P12 证书的过程。 这些证书在建立安全连接和确保 Elasticsearch 集群的完整性方面发挥着至关重要的作用。
友情提示：你可以选择其中一种方法来在你的环境中创建和使用证书。
方法一：创建 P12 证书
如果你还没有安装好自己的 Elasticsearch 的话，请参考之前的文章 “如何在 Linux，MacOS 及 Windows 上进行安装 Elasticsearch”。在安装完 Elasticsearch 后，我们进行如下的步骤：
创建 CA 证书
./bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca$ pwd
/Users/liuxg/elastic/elasticsearch-8.9.0
$ ./bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca
This tool assists you in the generation of X.509 certificates and certificate
signing requests for use with SSL/TLS in the Elastic stack.
The 'ca' mode generates a new 'certificate authority'
This will create a new X.509 certificate and private key that can be used
to sign certificate when running in 'cert' mode.
Use the 'ca-dn' option if you wish to configure the 'distinguished name'
of the certificate authority
By default the 'ca' mode produces a single PKCS#12 output file which holds:
* The CA certificate
* The CA's private key
If you elect to generate PEM format certificates (the -pem option), then the output will
be a zip file containing individual files for the CA certificate and private key
Please enter the desired output file [elastic-stack-ca.p12]:
Enter password for elastic-stack-ca.p12 :
$ ls
LICENSE.txt bin elastic-stack-ca.p12 logs
NOTICE.txt config jdk.app modules
README.asciidoc data lib plugins从上面的的输出中，我们可以看到多了一个叫做 elastic-stack-ca.p12 的文件。生成的过程中，我们可以使用自己喜欢的 password 来加密这个证书。
默认情况下，“ca” 模式生成一个 PKCS#12 输出文件，其中包含：
- CA 证书
- CA 的私钥
我们可以通过如下的命令来进行检查：
$ keytool -keystore elastic-stack-ca.p12 -list
Enter keystore password:
Keystore type: PKCS12
Keystore provider: SUN
Your keystore contains 1 entry

This tool assists you in the generation of X.509 certificates and certificate
signing requests for use with SSL/TLS in the Elastic stack.
The 'cert' mode generates X.509 certificate and private keys.
* By default, this generates a single certificate and key for use
on a single instance.
* The '-multiple' option will prompt you to enter details for multiple
instances and will generate a certificate and key for each one
* The '-in' option allows for the certificate generation to be automated by describing
the details of each instance in a YAML file
* An instance is any piece of the Elastic Stack that requires an SSL certificate.
Depending on your configuration, Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana, and Beats
may all require a certificate and private key.
* The minimum required value for each instance is a name. This can simply be the
hostname, which will be used as the Common Name of the certificate. A full
distinguished name may also be used.
* A filename value may be required for each instance. This is necessary when the
name would result in an invalid file or directory name. The name provided here
is used as the directory name (within the zip) and the prefix for the key and
certificate files. The filename is required if you are prompted and the name
is not displayed in the prompt.
* IP addresses and DNS names are optional. Multiple values can be specified as a
comma separated string. If no IP addresses or DNS names are provided, you may
disable hostname verification in your SSL configuration.
* All certificates generated by this tool will be signed by a certificate authority (CA)
unless the --self-signed command line option is specified.
The tool can automatically generate a new CA for you, or you can provide your own with
the --ca or --ca-cert command line options.
By default the 'cert' mode produces a single PKCS#12 output file which holds:
* The instance certificate
* The private key for the instance certificate
* The CA certificate
If you specify any of the following options:
* -pem (PEM formatted output)
* -multiple (generate multiple certificates)
* -in (generate certificates from an input file)
then the output will be be a zip file containing individual certificate/key files
Enter password for CA (elastic-stack-ca.p12) :

This file should be properly secured as it contains the private key for
your instance.
This file is a self contained file and can be copied and used 'as is'
For each Elastic product that you wish to configure, you should copy
this '.p12' file to the relevant configuration directory
and then follow the SSL configuration instructions in the product guide.
For client applications, you may only need to copy the CA certificate and
configure the client to trust this certificate.

方法二：创建 pem 和 key 证书
生成 CA 证书
我们使用如下的命令来进行：
./bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca --pem$ pwd
/Users/liuxg/elastic/elasticsearch-8.9.0
$ ./bin/elasticsearch-certutil ca --pem
This tool assists you in the generation of X.509 certificates and certificate
signing requests for use with SSL/TLS in the Elastic stack.
The 'ca' mode generates a new 'certificate authority'
This will create a new X.509 certificate and private key that can be used
to sign certificate when running in 'cert' mode.
Use the 'ca-dn' option if you wish to configure the 'distinguished name'
of the certificate authority
By default the 'ca' mode produces a single PKCS#12 output file which holds:
* The CA certificate
* The CA's private key
If you elect to generate PEM format certificates (the -pem option), then the output will
be a zip file containing individual files for the CA certificate and private key
Please enter the desired output file [elastic-stack-ca.zip]:
$ ls

Each instance has a certificate and private key.
For each Elastic product that you wish to configure, you should copy
the certificate, key, and CA certificate to the relevant configuration directory
and then follow the SSL configuration instructions in the product guide.
For client applications, you may only need to copy the CA certificate and
configure the client to trust this certificate.
