4.12.1. Extending Attribute Support
By default, the Certificate System supports the attributes identified in
Table 4.3, “Allowed Characters
for Value Types”
. This list of supported attributes can be extended by creating or adding new
attributes. The syntax for adding additional
X.500Name
attributes, or components, is as follows:
X500Name. NEW_ATTRNAME .oid= n.n.n.n
X500Name. NEW_ATTRNAME .class= string_to_DER_value_converter_class
The value converter class converts a string to an ASN.1 value; this class must implement the
netscape.security.x509.AVAValueConverter
interface. The string-to-value converter class
can be one of the following:
•
netscape.security.x509.PrintableConverter
converts a string to a
PrintableString
value. The string must have only printable characters.
•
netscape.security.x509.IA5StringConverter
converts a string to an
IA5String
value.
The string must have only IA5String characters.
•
netscape.security.x509.DirStrConverter
converts a string to a
DirectoryString
. The
string is expected to be in
DirectoryString
format according to RFC 2253.
•
netscape.security.x509.GenericValueConverter
converts a string character by character
in the following order, from the smallest characterset to the largest:
• Printable
• IA5String
• BMPString
• Universal String
An attribute entry looks like the following:
X500Name.MY_ATTR.oid=1.2.3.4.5.6
X500Name.MY_ATTR.class=netscape.security.x509.DirStrConverter
4.12.1.1. Adding New or Proprietary Attributes
To add a new or proprietary attribute to the Certificate System schema, do the following:
1. Stop the Certificate Manager.
/etc/init.d/rhpki-ca stop
2. Open the
/var/lib/rhpki-ca/conf
directory.
