+# This file contains a partial Apache2 server configuration which
+# enables reverse proxy service for Kea RESTful API. An access to
+# the service is protected by client's certificate verification
+# mechanism. Before using this configuration a server administrator
+# must generate server certificate and private key as well as
+# the certificate authority (CA). The clients' certificates must
+# be signed by the CA.
+#
+# Note that the steps provided below to generate and setup certificates
+# are provided as an example for testing purposes only. Always
+# consider best known security measures to protect your production
+# environment.
+#
+# The server certificate and key can be generated as follows:
+#
+# openssl genrsa -des3 -out kea-proxy.key 4096
+# openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key kea-proxy.key -out kea-proxy.crt
+#
+# The CA certificate and key can be generated as follows:
+#
+# openssl genrsa -des3 -out ca.key 4096
+# openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key ca.key -out ca.crt
+#
+#
+# The client certificate needs to be generated and signed:
+#
+# openssl genrsa -des3 -out kea-client.key 4096
+# openssl req -new -key kea-client.key -out kea-client.csr
+# openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in kea-client.csr -CA ca.crt \
+# -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 10 -out kea-client.crt
+#
+# Note that the 'common name' value used when generating the client
+# and the server certificates must differ from the value used
+# for the CA certificate.
+#
+# The client certificate must be deployed on the client system.
+# In order to test the proxy configuration with 'curl' run
+# command similar to the following:
+#
+# curl -k --key kea-client.key --cert kea-client.crt -X POST \
+# -H Content-Type:application/json -d '{ "command": "list-commands" }' \
+# https://kea.example.org/kea
+#
+# On some curl running on macOS the crypto library requires a PKCS#12
+# bundle with the private key and the certificate as the cert argument.
+# The PKCS#12 file can be generated by:
+#
+# openssl pkcs12 -export -in kea-client.crt -inkey kea-client.key \
+# -out kea-client.p12
+#
+# If the password is kea, curl command becomes:
+#
+# curl -k --cert kea-client.p12:kea -X POST \
+# -H Content-Type:application/json -d '{ "command": "list-commands" }' \
+# https://kea.example.org/kea
+#
+#
+# In order to use this configuration within your Apache2 configuration
+# put the following line in the main Apache 2 configuration file:
+#
+# Include /path/to/kea-httpd2.conf
+#
+# and specify a path appropriate for your system.
+#
+#
+# Apache2 server configuration starts here.
+#
+# Address and port that the server should bind to.
+# Usually an explicit address is specified to avoid binding to
+# many addresses. For testing https connection on the localhost
+# use:
+# Listen [::1]:443 or
+# Listen 127.0.0.1:443
+Listen *:443
+
+# List the ciphers that the client is permitted to negotiate,
+# and that httpd will negotiate as the client of a proxied server.
+# See the OpenSSL documentation for a complete list of ciphers, and
+# ensure these follow appropriate best practices for this deployment.
+# httpd 2.2.30, 2.4.13 and later force-disable aNULL, eNULL and EXP ciphers,
+# while OpenSSL disabled these by default in 0.9.8zf/1.0.0r/1.0.1m/1.0.2a.
