|

If you are using Istio self-signed certificates,
|
||
you need to be mindful about the expiration date of the root certificate.
|
||
The expiration of a root certificate may lead to an unexpected cluster-wide outage.</p><p>To evaluate the lifetime remaining for your root certificate, please refer to the first step in the
|
||
<a href=#root-transition-procedure>procedure below</a>.</p><p>The steps below show you how to transition to a new root certificate.
|
||
After the transition, the new root certificate has a 10 year lifetime.
|
||
Note that the Envoy instances will be hot restarted to reload the new root certificates, which may impact long-lived connections.
|
||
For details about the impact and how Envoy hot restart works, please refer to
|
||
<a href=https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/intro/arch_overview/operations/hot_restart>here</a> and

follow the procedure below to perform a root certificate transition.</p><p>If you are currently using the mutual TLS feature in Istio with self-signed certificates,
