Description Kathryn Alexander 2018-05-08 17:47:58 UTC
Document URL: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.9/security/securing_container_platform.html#security-platform-cert-mgmt

Section Number and Name: Managing Certificates for the Platform

Describe the issue: Some context is missing from the descriptions of the certificates. 

Suggestions for improvement: Provide more information about how the CA provides certificates for nodes and containers. Be clear how users can add their own CA/root authority to the certificate flow.
