How to create a certificate for an IoT device?
When you authenticate an IoT device with self-signed certificates, you need to create device certificates based on the root CA certificate for your solution. Then, you retrieve a hexadecimal “fingerprint” from the certificates to provide to IoT Hub.
Where do I find CA certificate for IoT edge?
Every IoT Edge device going to production needs a device CA certificate that’s referenced from the config file. The device CA certificate is responsible for creating certificates for modules running on the device.
When does a certificate expire in IoT edge?
IoT Edge devices functioning as gateways use these same certificates to connect to their downstream devices, too. When you first install IoT Edge and provision your device, the device is set up with temporary certificates so that you can test the service. These temporary certificates expire in 90 days, or can be reset by restarting your machine.
How to create a certificate for Azure IoT Hub?
Set up scripts for certificate generation on your device. Create the root CA certificate that you use to sign all the other certificates for your scenario. Create IoT Edge device identity certificates for provisioning devices with X.509 certificate authentication, either manually or with the IoT Hub Device Provisioning Service.
