Encrypt Compute metadata traffic
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
**Enabling SSL encryption**
OpenStack supports encrypting Compute metadata traffic with HTTPS. Enable SSL
encryption in the ``metadata_agent.ini`` file.
#. Enable the HTTPS protocol.
.. code-block:: ini
nova_metadata_protocol = https
#. Determine whether insecure SSL connections are accepted for Compute metadata
server requests. The default value is ``False``.
.. code-block:: ini
nova_metadata_insecure = False
#. Specify the path to the client certificate.
.. code-block:: ini
nova_client_cert = PATH_TO_CERT
#. Specify the path to the private key.
.. code-block:: ini
nova_client_priv_key = PATH_TO_KEY
