## Certificate Authority rotation
## Certificate authority rotation

This section will show you how to implement certificate rotation in practice.
This section will show you how to rotate Teleport's certificate authority.

If you are using [CA Pinning](../join-services-to-your-cluster/join-token.mdx#obtain-a-ca-pin)
when adding new nodes, the CA pin will change after the rotation. Make sure you
use the *new* CA pin when adding nodes after rotation.
If you are joining Teleport processes to a cluster via the Teleport Auth Service
using a [join token](../join-services-to-your-cluster/join-token.mdx), each
Teleport process will need a CA pin to trust the Auth Service. The CA pin will
change after each CA rotation. Make sure you use the *new* CA pin when adding
Teleport services after rotation.
