Testbed User Guide

This user guide is meant to explain to each testbed user what they should do with the testbed in order to assess the compatibility of their own developed component.

1. Download and Install the Testbed

Follow the instructions in the installation and configuration guide to install and configure the testbed as required. Utilize the preconfigured setup described as basis for this user guide.

2. Integrating your Connector into the Ecosystem

2.1. Generate a Certificate for your Connector

Generate a private-public key pair for your connector. Issue a certificate for the public key in this key pair signed by the private key of the utilized testbed CA:

./pki.py cert sign --key-file [path to public key file] --subCA [Sub CA name] --common-name [common name] --client

For the preconfigured setup, the name of the subCA is "ReferenceTestbedSubCA" and the respective files are found in CertificateAuthority/data/subca/.

Ensure that your connector always utilizes this IDS certificate to prove their identity with respect to the other components.

2.2. Configure your Connector

• Configure your connector to use the common Root CA (cert). For the preconfigured setup, the file to be utilized is CertificateAuthority/data/ca/ReferenceTestbedCA.crt

• Configure your connector to use the DAPS available under https://localhost:443 (endpoints: /token, /.well-known/jwks.json)

• Provide a self-description for your connector

3. Interacting with the DAPS

3.1. Register your connector at the DAPS

• Register your connector following the instructions provided here.
• Or use the manual steps described below:

1. Convert your connector certificate {common name}.crt from step 2.1 into the format required by the DAPS:

## .crt + .key -> .p12
openssl pkcs12 -export -out {common name}.p12 -inkey {common name}.key -in {common name}.crt -passout pass:password
## .p12 -> .cert
openssl pkcs12 -in {common name}.p12 -out {common name}.cert -nokeys -nodes -passin pass:password

1. Add the certificate {common name}.cert to the DAPS/keys directory

2. Add your client information identified by the unique identifier (client_id) in the DAPS/config/clients.yml file following the given examples in this file. The provided script DAPS/register_connector.sh can extract the unique identifier from the certificate to help the users who are not familiar with AKI/SKI extensions. This script adds the specified certificate to the DAPS's list of clients.

3.2. Request your DAT

• Use your connector to request a DAT from the DAPS

• Validate that you received a valid DAT corresponding to the specification: https://github.com/International-Data-Spaces-Association/IDS-G/blob/main/Components/IdentityProvider/DAPS/README.md#dynamic-attribute-token-dat

4. Interacting with Connectors

4.1. Request Self-descriptions from Available Connectors

Connector A Connector A is available at the following URL: https://localhost:8080

Request the Self-Description from Connector A using those of the following protocols you support:

• Multipart: currently supported by connector A

• IDSCP2: currently supported by connector A - still work in progress

• IDS-REST: not yet supported by connector A

Validate that you receive the following self-description:

5.3. Register your connector at the IDS MetaDataBroker with an exemplary data set

Register your connector at the MetaData Broker using those of the following protocols you support:

• Multipart: currently supported by the MetaData Broker

• IDSCP2: not yet supported by the MetaData Broker

• IDS-REST: not yet supported by the MetaData Broker

Query the MetaData Broker for all available datasets using those of the following protocols you support:

• Multipart: currently supported by the MetaData Broker

• IDSCP2: not yet supported by the MetaData Broker

• IDS-REST: not yet supported by the MetaData Broker

Validate that the received list of connectors represents the list retreived in 5.2, but extended for your own provided information.

In Addition: Execute Automated Test Suite

Please execute the automated (interoperability) test suite provided at the Testsuite folder by following the installation and execution instructions.
