<p>TLS authentication is an extension of <a href="/docs/en/2.1.1-incubating/security-tls-transport">TLS transport encryption</a>, but instead of only servers having keys and certs which the client uses the verify the server's identity, clients also have keys and certs which the server uses to verify the client's identity. You must have TLS transport encryption configured on your cluster before you can use TLS authentication. This guide assumes you already have TLS transport encryption configured.</p>

<p>Client certificates are generated using the same certificate authority as was used to generate the server certificates.</p>
<p>The biggest difference between client certs and server certs is that the <strong>common name</strong> for the client certificate is the <strong>role token</strong> which that client will be authenticated as.</p>
<p>First generate the key.</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">$ openssl genrsa -out admin.key.pem 2048
</code></pre>
<p>Similar to the broker, the client expects the key to be in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS_8">PKCS 8</a> format, so convert it.</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">$ openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PEM -outform PEM \
-<span class="hljs-keyword">in</span> admin.key.pem -out admin.key-pk8.pem -nocrypt
</code></pre>
<p>Generate the certificate request. When asked for a <strong>common name</strong>, enter the <strong>role token</strong> which you want this key pair to authenticate a client as.</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">$ openssl req -config openssl.cnf \
-key admin.key.pem -new -sha256 -out admin.csr.pem
</code></pre>
<p>Sign with request with the certificate authority. Note that that client certs uses the <strong>usr_cert</strong> extension, which allows the cert to be used for client authentication.</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-bash">$ openssl ca -config openssl.cnf -extensions usr_cert \
-days 1000 -notext -md sha256 \
-<span class="hljs-keyword">in</span> admin.csr.pem -out admin.cert.pem
</code></pre>
<p>This will give you a cert, <code>admin.cert.pem</code>, and a key, <code>admin.key-pk8.pem</code>, which, with <code>ca.cert.pem</code>, can be used by clients to authenticate themselves to brokers and proxies as the role token <code>admin</code>.</p>

<p>To configure proxies to authenticate clients, put the following in <code>proxy.conf</code>, alongside <a href="/docs/en/2.1.1-incubating/security-tls-transport#proxy-configuration">the configuration to enable tls transport</a>:</p>
<p>The proxy should have its own client key pair for connecting to brokers. The role token for this key pair should be configured in the <code>proxyRoles</code> of the brokers. See the <a href="/docs/en/2.1.1-incubating/security-authorization">authorization guide</a> for more details.</p>

<p>When TLS authentication, the client needs to connect via TLS transport, so you need to configure the client to use <code>https://</code> and port 8443 for the web service URL, and <code>pulsar+ssl://</code> and port 6651 for the broker service URL.</p>
