|
|
- `-additional-name-constraint=<value>` - Add name constraints for the CA.
|
|
Results in rejecting certificates for other DNS than specified. Can be used
|
|
multiple times. Only used in combination with `-name-constraint`.
|
|
|
|
- `-days=<int>` - Provide number of days the CA is valid for from now on, defaults to 5 years.
|
|
|
|
- `-domain=<string>` - Domain of consul cluster. Only used in combination with

|
certificates for other DNS than specified. If turned on localhost and -domain
