> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GEODE-10561
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-10561
> Project: Geode
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Jinwoo Hwang
> Assignee: Jinwoo Hwang
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.1
>
>
> h2. Summary
> Create official Apache Geode documentation that explains three supported TLS deployment models and migration guidance in response to the upcoming public CA removal of the Client Authentication EKU. The documentation will be an authoritative operator guide covering configuration, rotation, verification, and recommended automation patterns.
> Note: This guidance applies only to environments using newly issued public-CA mTLS certificates where the public CA's issuance does not include client CA certificates in the chain. If your deployment already uses an enterprise/internal CA or a public-CA chain that includes client CA certificates, no action is required; those deployments are not affected by this guidance and should continue to follow the internal-CA or hybrid guidance where appropriate.
> h2. Background
> Public Certificate Authorities are removing or changing issuance behavior for client-auth EKUs on publicly-issued leaf certificates. This impacts users who relied on public-CA-signed client certificates for mutual TLS (mTLS) with Apache Geode. We must produce an official doc describing viable options and migration steps.
> h2. Objective
> Produce a concise, reviewable doc set and a single canonical HOWTO that covers:
> - Option A: Internal / enterprise CA for mTLS
> - Option B: Server-only TLS + application-layer client authentication (no client certs)
> - Option C: Hybrid — public-CA server certs + private-CA client certs
> h2. Tasks
> * Create top-level doc `docs/TLS_MIGRATION_GUIDE.md` that aggregates content.
> * Finalize and land docs in `main` and backport to supported release branches.
> h2. Priority & Due Date
> Priority: High — public CA policy changes have a concrete timeline. Suggest target: 3 weeks.
