### KMIP Certificate Authority for Client Certificates

When the KMIP Secrets Engine is initially configured, Vault generates a KMIP
Certificate Authority (CA) whose only purpose is to authenticate KMIP client
certificates.

Vault uses the internal KMIP CA to generate certificates for clients
authenticating to Vault with the KMIP protocol. You cannot import external KMIP
authorities. All KMIP authentication must use the internally-generated KMIP CA.
