Hi Alon,

Thanks understand....that means no need to enroll certificate from the
internal...just generate the CSR from standalone websocket proxy server and
receive the 3rd party SSL and install that SSL on the websocket proxy
server and then Create /etc/ovirt-engine/ovirt-
websocket-proxy.conf.d/20-pki.conf and override the SSL_CERTIFICATE and
SSL_KEY with 3rd party certificate chain and matching key. ???

Also one more question....as i don't want to use the ovirt default
websocket proxy as it doesn't fit to our requirement....we are using
websockify on the separate standalone server....it seems i need to do the
same as we can do for the websocket...m i right ??

Thanks For your help Alon...

Thanks,
Punit
