OpenStack Juno supports encrypting Compute metadata traffic with
HTTPS. Enable SSL encryption in the metadata_agent.ini
file:
Enable the HTTPS protocol:
nova_metadata_protocol = https
Determine whether insecure SSL connections are accepted for Compute metadata server requests. The default value is
False
:nova_metadata_insecure = False
Specify the path to the client certificate:
nova_client_cert =
PATH_TO_CERT
Specify the path to the private key:
nova_client_priv_key =
PATH_TO_KEY
