Check out the complete course outline.
Prerequisites:
RH423 requires RHCE-level skills. The RHCE certificate on Red Hat Linux 7.1 or later is recommended but not required. Prerequisite skills can be shown by passing the RHCE Exam in either RH302 or RH300, or by taking RH253 Red Hat Linux Networking and Security Administration or by possessing comparable skills and knowledge.
In addition, students should be familiar with SSL, X.509 certificate generation, and LDAP. It is useful, but not required, to have taken RH423 Red Hat Enterprise Directory Services and Authentication.
Although this class will teach audience members the basics of public key infrastructures, it is nonetheless important for audience members to understand the purposes of a PKI in advance.
Goal:
RHS435 teaches systems engineers to setup and manage the Red Hat Certificate System, a certificate management system capable of scaling from a workgroup to a multinational enterprise. The Red Hat Certificate System permits users to register and revoke their certificates, and confirm the validity of other certificates. Thus, it ensures the validity of encrypted and signed messages.
Topics covered in this course include: understanding certificate management; using LDAP in a CMS; key management; Certificate Authority management; and troubleshooting. See below for a more detailed outline.
RHS435 is technically advanced, with a strong focus on labs. Therefore, it is essential that audience members are either RHCEs or possess RHCE-level skills.
Audience:
RHS435 is designed for systems engineers, consultants, or other technical personnel responsible for operating a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) using the Red Hat Certificate System.
This course is particularly useful for system administrators managing Enterprise Linux systems running versions 2.1, 3, 4 and migrating to version 5.
