| PackageDescription | Certificate System (CS) is an enterprise software system designed
to manage enterprise Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) deployments.
The Token Processing System (TPS) is an optional PKI subsystem that acts
as a Registration Authority (RA) for authenticating and processing
enrollment requests, PIN reset requests, and formatting requests from
the Enterprise Security Client (ESC).
TPS is designed to communicate with tokens that conform to
Global Platform's Open Platform Specification.
TPS communicates over SSL with various PKI backend subsystems (including
the Certificate Authority (CA), the Data Recovery Manager (DRM), and the
Token Key Service (TKS)) to fulfill the user's requests.
TPS also interacts with the token database, an LDAP server that stores
information about individual tokens.
For deployment purposes, a TPS requires the following components from the
PKI Core package:
* pki-server
* pki-tools
Additionally, Certificate System requires ONE AND ONLY ONE of the
following "Mutually-Exclusive" PKI Theme packages:
* dogtag-pki-theme (Dogtag Certificate System deployments)
* dogtag-pki-server-theme
* redhat-pki-server-theme (Red Hat Certificate System deployments)
* redhat-pki-server-theme
* customized pki theme (Customized Certificate System deployments)
* <customized>-pki-server-theme
