Test Image#

The test image is provided for testing and development purposes. It does not offer to run the NetHSM process with hardware-based separation (KVM), to encrypt the data store, or to use an external etcd. The connection between the NetHSM process and the integrated key-value store is unencrypted. The image is distributed as OCI image and can be run locally with a compatible executor such as Docker and Podman.

Vergeleken met de NetHSM-hardware zijn de volgende functies niet geïmplementeerd in de REST API van de softwarecontainer:

  • Network configuration

  • Factory reset

  • Reboot

  • Software update

The image can be obtained from Docker Hub.

Waarschuwing

Do not use the test image under any circumstances for production data and use cases. For production environments with high security demands you must use the production image.

Tagging Policy#

The images in the repository are tagged with the Git commit hash from the main branch of the repository. The latest image is tagged with testing.

Configuratie#

The image can be configured with the following environment variables.

Environment variable

Beschrijving

DEBUG_LOG

Enables extended logging for NetHSM.

Gebruik#

De container kan als volgt worden uitgevoerd.

$ docker run --rm -ti -p 8443:8443 docker.io/nitrokey/nethsm:testing

This will run NetHSM as a Unix process inside the container and expose the REST API via the HTTPS protocol on port 8443.

Belangrijk

De container gebruikt een zelfondertekend TLS-certificaat. Zorg ervoor dat u de juiste verbindingsinstellingen gebruikt om een verbinding tot stand te brengen. Zie hoofdstuk NetHSM introductie voor meer informatie.
