There is an additional scenario: The setup on a child node does
not necessarily need a connection to the parent node.

This mode leaves the node in a semi-configured state. You need
to manually copy the master's public CA key into `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/ca.crt`
on the client before starting Icinga 2.
Running `icinga2 node setup` without using the `--parent_host` argument will leave
the node in a semi-configured state. I.e., you will need to manually copy the master's
public CA key into `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/ca.crt` on the client before starting
Icinga2. After which the TLS communication can be established.

To complete the certificate signing, the `icinga2 ca list` and `icinga2 ca sign`
commands must be used on the Icinga CA server to complete the certificate signing
process if no ticket was provided using the `--ticket` argument.
