+VES Collector Helm Installation
+===============================
+
+Authentication Support - Helm based deployment
+----------------------------------------------
+
+VES Collector support following authentication types
+
+    * *auth.method=noAuth* - no security (http)
+    * *auth.method=certBasicAuth* - is used to enable mutual TLS authentication or/and basic HTTPs authentication
+
+Default ONAP deployed VESCollector is configured for "certBasicAuth".
+
+The default behavior can be changed by upgrading dcaegen2-services deployment with custom values:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        helm -n onap upgrade <DEPLOYMENT_PREFIX>-dcaegen2-services oom/kubernetes/dcaegen2-services --reuse-values --values <path to values>
+
+For example:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        helm -n onap upgrade dev-dcaegen2-services oom/kubernetes/dcaegen2-services --reuse-values --values new-config.yaml
+
+Where the contents of ``new-config.yaml`` file is:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        dcae-ves-collector:
+          applicationConfig:
+            auth.method: "noAuth"
+
+For small changes like this, it is also possible to inline the new value:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        helm -n onap upgrade dev-dcaegen2-services oom/kubernetes/dcaegen2-services --reuse-values --set dcae-ves-collector.applicationConfig.auth.method="noAuth"
+
+After the upgrade, the new auth method value should be visible inside dev-dcae-ves-collector-application-config-configmap Config-Map.
+It can be verified by running:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        kubectl -n onap get cm <config map name> -o yaml
+
+For VES Collector:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        kubectl -n onap get cm dev-dcae-ves-collector-application-config-configmap -o yaml
+
+Using external TLS certificates obtained using CMP v2 protocol
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In order to use the X.509 certificates obtained from the CMP v2 server (so called "operator`s certificates"), refer to the following description:
+
+:ref:`Enabling TLS with external x.509 certificates <external-tls-helm>`
+
+Example values for VES Collector:
+    .. code-block:: bash
+
+        global:
+          cmpv2Enabled: true
+        dcae-ves-collector:
+          useCmpv2Certificates: true
+          certificates:
+          - mountPath: /opt/app/dcae-certificate/external
+            commonName: dcae-ves-collector
+            dnsNames:
+              - dcae-ves-collector
+              - ves-collector
+              - ves
+            keystore:
+              outputType:
+                - jks
+              passwordSecretRef:
+                name: ves-cmpv2-keystore-password
+                key: password
+                create: true
