We are planning to implement SSL on Oracle EBS 12.2.x wit Let's encrypt as Let's encrypt is provide free SSL certificate and we have to enable TLS 1.2 on Oracle EBS instance, therefore, i need your help and support in this regard.
Please note that the machine is locally hosted and not public on the internet also limited outbound internet access is given to the machine
i also read a post where it is possible to generate an SSL certificate without internet through a DNS-based validation method so will this work for my scenario?
DNS authentication will be the only way for it to obtain a cert directly.
But that requires for the system to have outbound HTTPS access to acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org and be able to update a real internet DNS zone (to prove ownership of that name).
If that is NOT possible for that system, you may have to resort to some clever delegation.
Where some other (less restricted) system can go get the cert and then make it locally available to your system.
As per the above link, the only problem with DNS authentication is renewal how can we overcome this problem?
