Vault Agent Auto-Auth Cert Method

The cert method uses the configured TLS certificates from the vault stanza of the agent configuration and takes an optional name parameter. There is no option to use certificates which differ from those used in the vault stanza.

See TLS settings in the vault Stanza

Configuration

  • name (string: optional) - The trusted certificate role which should be used when authenticating with TLS. If a name is not specified, the auth method will try to authenticate against all trusted certificates.
