 <!-- overview -->
 
-When using client certificate authentication, you can generate certificates
-manually through `easyrsa`, `openssl` or `cfssl`.
-
-
-
-
-<!-- body -->
-
-### easyrsa
-
-**easyrsa** can manually generate certificates for your cluster.
-
-1.  Download, unpack, and initialize the patched version of easyrsa3.
-
-        curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/easy-rsa/easy-rsa.tar.gz
-        tar xzf easy-rsa.tar.gz
-        cd easy-rsa-master/easyrsa3
-        ./easyrsa init-pki
-1.  Generate a new certificate authority (CA). `--batch` sets automatic mode;
-    `--req-cn` specifies the Common Name (CN) for the CA's new root certificate.
-
-        ./easyrsa --batch "--req-cn=${MASTER_IP}@`date +%s`" build-ca nopass
-1.  Generate server certificate and key.
-    The argument `--subject-alt-name` sets the possible IPs and DNS names the API server will
-    be accessed with. The `MASTER_CLUSTER_IP` is usually the first IP from the service CIDR
-    that is specified as the `--service-cluster-ip-range` argument for both the API server and
-    the controller manager component. The argument `--days` is used to set the number of days
-    after which the certificate expires.
-    The sample below also assumes that you are using `cluster.local` as the default
-    DNS domain name.
-
-        ./easyrsa --subject-alt-name="IP:${MASTER_IP},"\
-        "IP:${MASTER_CLUSTER_IP},"\
-        "DNS:kubernetes,"\
-        "DNS:kubernetes.default,"\
-        "DNS:kubernetes.default.svc,"\
-        "DNS:kubernetes.default.svc.cluster,"\
-        "DNS:kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local" \
-        --days=10000 \
-        build-server-full server nopass
-1.  Copy `pki/ca.crt`, `pki/issued/server.crt`, and `pki/private/server.key` to your directory.
-1.  Fill in and add the following parameters into the API server start parameters:
-
-        --client-ca-file=/yourdirectory/ca.crt
-        --tls-cert-file=/yourdirectory/server.crt
-        --tls-private-key-file=/yourdirectory/server.key
-
-### openssl
-
-**openssl** can manually generate certificates for your cluster.
-
-1.  Generate a ca.key with 2048bit:
-
-        openssl genrsa -out ca.key 2048
-1.  According to the ca.key generate a ca.crt (use -days to set the certificate effective time):
-
-        openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key ca.key -subj "/CN=${MASTER_IP}" -days 10000 -out ca.crt
-1.  Generate a server.key with 2048bit:
-
-        openssl genrsa -out server.key 2048
-1.  Create a config file for generating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR).
-    Be sure to substitute the values marked with angle brackets (e.g. `<MASTER_IP>`)
-    with real values before saving this to a file (e.g. `csr.conf`).
-    Note that the value for `MASTER_CLUSTER_IP` is the service cluster IP for the
-    API server as described in previous subsection.
-    The sample below also assumes that you are using `cluster.local` as the default
-    DNS domain name.
-
-        [ req ]
-        default_bits = 2048
-        prompt = no
-        default_md = sha256
-        req_extensions = req_ext
-        distinguished_name = dn
-
-        [ dn ]
-        C = <country>
-        ST = <state>
-        L = <city>
-        O = <organization>
-        OU = <organization unit>
-        CN = <MASTER_IP>
-
-        [ req_ext ]
-        subjectAltName = @alt_names
-
-        [ alt_names ]
-        DNS.1 = kubernetes
-        DNS.2 = kubernetes.default
-        DNS.3 = kubernetes.default.svc
-        DNS.4 = kubernetes.default.svc.cluster
-        DNS.5 = kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local
-        IP.1 = <MASTER_IP>
-        IP.2 = <MASTER_CLUSTER_IP>
-
-        [ v3_ext ]
-        authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer:always
-        basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
-        keyUsage=keyEncipherment,dataEncipherment
-        extendedKeyUsage=serverAuth,clientAuth
-        subjectAltName=@alt_names
-1.  Generate the certificate signing request based on the config file:
-
-        openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr -config csr.conf
-1.  Generate the server certificate using the ca.key, ca.crt and server.csr:
-
-        openssl x509 -req -in server.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key \
-        -CAcreateserial -out server.crt -days 10000 \
-        -extensions v3_ext -extfile csr.conf
-1.  View the certificate:
-
-        openssl x509  -noout -text -in ./server.crt
-
-Finally, add the same parameters into the API server start parameters.
-
-### cfssl
-
-**cfssl** is another tool for certificate generation.
-
-1.  Download, unpack and prepare the command line tools as shown below.
-    Note that you may need to adapt the sample commands based on the hardware
-    architecture and cfssl version you are using.
-
-        curl -L https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/releases/download/v1.5.0/cfssl_1.5.0_linux_amd64 -o cfssl
-        chmod +x cfssl
-        curl -L https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/releases/download/v1.5.0/cfssljson_1.5.0_linux_amd64 -o cfssljson
-        chmod +x cfssljson
-        curl -L https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/releases/download/v1.5.0/cfssl-certinfo_1.5.0_linux_amd64 -o cfssl-certinfo
-        chmod +x cfssl-certinfo
-1.  Create a directory to hold the artifacts and initialize cfssl:
-
-        mkdir cert
-        cd cert
-        ../cfssl print-defaults config > config.json
-        ../cfssl print-defaults csr > csr.json
-1.  Create a JSON config file for generating the CA file, for example, `ca-config.json`:
-
-        {
-          "signing": {
-            "default": {
-              "expiry": "8760h"
-            },
-            "profiles": {
-              "kubernetes": {
-                "usages": [
-                  "signing",
-                  "key encipherment",
-                  "server auth",
-                  "client auth"
-                ],
-                "expiry": "8760h"
-              }
-            }
-          }
-        }
-1.  Create a JSON config file for CA certificate signing request (CSR), for example,
-    `ca-csr.json`. Be sure to replace the values marked with angle brackets with
-    real values you want to use.
-
-        {
-          "CN": "kubernetes",
-          "key": {
-            "algo": "rsa",
-            "size": 2048
-          },
-          "names":[{
-            "C": "<country>",
-            "ST": "<state>",
-            "L": "<city>",
-            "O": "<organization>",
-            "OU": "<organization unit>"
-          }]
-        }
-1.  Generate CA key (`ca-key.pem`) and certificate (`ca.pem`):
-
-        ../cfssl gencert -initca ca-csr.json | ../cfssljson -bare ca
-1.  Create a JSON config file for generating keys and certificates for the API
-    server, for example, `server-csr.json`. Be sure to replace the values in angle brackets with
-    real values you want to use. The `MASTER_CLUSTER_IP` is the service cluster
-    IP for the API server as described in previous subsection.
-    The sample below also assumes that you are using `cluster.local` as the default
-    DNS domain name.
-
-        {
-          "CN": "kubernetes",
-          "hosts": [
-            "127.0.0.1",
-            "<MASTER_IP>",
-            "<MASTER_CLUSTER_IP>",
-            "kubernetes",
-            "kubernetes.default",
-            "kubernetes.default.svc",
-            "kubernetes.default.svc.cluster",
-            "kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local"
-          ],
-          "key": {
-            "algo": "rsa",
-            "size": 2048
-          },
-          "names": [{
-            "C": "<country>",
-            "ST": "<state>",
-            "L": "<city>",
-            "O": "<organization>",
-            "OU": "<organization unit>"
-          }]
-        }
-1.  Generate the key and certificate for the API server, which are by default
-    saved into file `server-key.pem` and `server.pem` respectively:
-
-        ../cfssl gencert -ca=ca.pem -ca-key=ca-key.pem \
-        --config=ca-config.json -profile=kubernetes \
-        server-csr.json | ../cfssljson -bare server
-

-## Distributing Self-Signed CA Certificate
-
-A client node may refuse to recognize a self-signed CA certificate as valid.
-For a non-production deployment, or for a deployment that runs behind a company
-firewall, you can distribute a self-signed CA certificate to all clients and
-refresh the local list for valid certificates.
-
-On each client, perform the following operations:
-
-```bash
-sudo cp ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/kubernetes.crt
-sudo update-ca-certificates
-```
-
-```
-Updating certificates in /etc/ssl/certs...
-1 added, 0 removed; done.
-Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d....
-done.
-```
-
-## Certificates API
-
-You can use the `certificates.k8s.io` API to provision
-x509 certificates to use for authentication as documented
-[here](/docs/tasks/tls/managing-tls-in-a-cluster).
