internal certificate distribution? - eviltoast

How do you manage the distribution of internal TLS network certificates? I’m using cert-manager to generate them, but the root self-signed certificate expires monthly which makes distribution to devices outside of K8s a challenge. It’s a PITA to keep doing this for the tablet, laptop and phones. I can bump the root cert to a year, but I’m concerned that the date will sneak up on me. Are there any automated solutions?

    Bump root cert to 10 years and use intermediate with shorter lifetime. root cert should be stored and processed off net.
