Class SSLFactory


  • public final class SSLFactory
    extends java.lang.Object
    A Factory for providing and setting up client SSLSockets. Also provides methods for creating both JSSE SSLContext instances as well as netty SslContext instances.

    Netty SslContext instances are expensive to create (as well as to destroy) and consume a lof of resources (especially direct memory), but instances can be reused across connections (assuming the SSL params are the same). Hence we cache created instances in cachedSslContexts.

        public static java.util.List<java.lang.String> tlsInstanceProtocolSubstitution()
        Provides the list of protocols that would have been supported if "TLS" was selected as the protocol before the change for CASSANDRA-13325 that expects explicit protocol versions.

                                                         throws java.io.IOException
        Create a JSSE SSLContext.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • getOrCreateSslContext

        public static io.netty.handler.ssl.SslContext getOrCreateSslContext​(EncryptionOptions options,
                                                                            boolean verifyPeerCertificate,

        get a netty SslContext instance
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • forceCheckCertFiles

        public static void forceCheckCertFiles()
        Forces revalidation and loading of SSL certifcates if valid
      • clearSslContextCache

        public static void clearSslContextCache()
        This clears the cache of Netty's SslContext objects for Client and Server sockets. This is made publically available so that any ISslContextFactory's implementation can call this to handle any special scenario to invalidate the SslContext cache. This should be used with caution since the purpose of this cache is save costly creation of Netty's SslContext objects and this essentially results in re-creating it.
      • initHotReloading

        public static void initHotReloading​(EncryptionOptions.ServerEncryptionOptions serverOpts,
                                            EncryptionOptions clientOpts,
                                            boolean force)
                                     throws java.io.IOException
        Determines whether to hot reload certificates and schedules a periodic task for it.
        Parameters:
        serverOpts - Server encryption options (Internode)
        clientOpts - Client encryption options (Native Protocol)
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
