- Some work has occurred to replace the existing expired Egeria certificated with up to date valid certificates, as part of this, the certificates are validated.
- The Egeria React UI 3.7 introduced new environment variables to allow the user to provide their own pfx ca and passphrase.
- Further work is being done to allow the pfx ca and passphrase to be specified per platform.

- It would be more appropriate to use something like Ingenx or Istio to handle:
- routing
- authentication
- certificates
- there seems to be a need for both these approaches:
- a manual approach allowing pocs, education and demos without requiring an overarching framework and a lot of enterprise orientated setup. This would run our node application.
- an enterprise approach that would :
- have a single authentication approach
- remove routing from the React UI
- remove the need for a node application.
- short term we enable ldap for the React UI (without multi tenancy)
- we will address the
