# Android Certificate Authentication Test Server
A simple mTLS (mutual TLS) test server for validating Android device certificate-based authentication with Fleet.
## Overview
This server validates client certificates issued via SCEP (Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol) to Android devices enrolled in Fleet. It demonstrates the end-to-end flow of:
1. Fleet managing Android devices
2. SCEP server issuing device certificates
3. Devices authenticating to resources using those certificates
## Prerequisites
- Go 1.21+
- [micromdm/scep](https://github.com/micromdm/scep) server
- Fleet server with Android MDM enabled
## Quick Start
### 1. Set Up the SCEP Server
First, install and configure the micromdm/scep server to issue certificates to your Android devices.
#### Install SCEP Server
```bash
# Download from releases
curl -LO https://github.com/micromdm/scep/releases/latest/download/scepserver-darwin-arm64
```
#### Initialize the CA
```bash
./scepserver ca -init \
-organization "Your Organization" \
-country "US" \
-common_name "Fleet SCEP CA"
```
This creates a `depot/` directory containing:
- `ca.pem` - CA certificate
- `ca.key` - CA private key
#### Start the SCEP Server
```bash
./scepserver -depot depot -port 2016 -challenge=your-secret-challenge
```
The SCEP endpoint will be available at `http://localhost:2016/scep`.
### 2. Configure Fleet for SCEP
Configure Fleet to use your SCEP server for Android certificate enrollment. Add the SCEP configuration to your Fleet server:
```yaml
# fleet.yml
mdm:
android:
scep_url: "http://your-scep-server:2016/scep"
scep_challenge: "your-secret-challenge"
```
Fleet will automatically request certificates for enrolled Android devices through the SCEP protocol.
### 3. Run the Certificate Auth Server
Build and run this test server, pointing it to the same CA that your SCEP server uses:
```bash
# Build
go build -o cert-auth-server main.go
# Run (using the CA certificate from your SCEP depot)
./cert-auth-server -ca-cert /path/to/depot/ca.pem -addr :8443
```
### 4. Test Device Authentication
From an enrolled Android device with a certificate issued by your SCEP server:
Load the server URL in a browser or HTTP client:
`https://your-cert-auth-server:8443/`
It should prompt for a client certificate. Upon successful authentication, you should see a message confirming the device's identity.
