Configuring TLS/SSL for Navigator Metadata Server
Cloudera Navigator supports TLS/SSL encryption for network communications between the Navigator Metadata Server and clients, such as the web browser used for Cloudera Navigator console. Typically, TLS/SSL is configured for the entire cluster, so it is possible that the server key and certificate already exist on the specific host running the Navigator Metadata Server role. The assumption in the steps below is that the cluster is already configured for TLS/SSL and the security artifacts have already been obtained and deployed to the host running the Navigator Metadata Server role instance.
- Log in to the Cloudera Manager Admin Console.
- Select Clusters > Cloudera Management Service.
- Click the Configuration tab.
- Select Scope > Navigator Metadata Server.
- Select Category > Security.
- Edit the following properties according to your cluster configuration.
Property Description Enable TLS/SSL for Navigator Metadata Server Encrypt network communications between clients and Navigator Metadata Server using TLS/SSL.
