Create SSL configurations

You can create an SSL configuration that describes the settings for a service request that uses SSL certification mechanisms. SSL configurations can be associated with any service request that uses the HTTP or IBM WebSphere MQ transport protocols.

If you are using SSL, ensure that you have valid certificate keystore files in the workspace.

If you are using SOAP security, configure the environment with the correct libraries and configuration files.


Create SSL configuration

  1. Go to...

  2. Click Rename to rename the default SSL configuration or New to create one.

  3. Specify the following settings for the SSL configuration.

    Server Authentication

    Always trust server Select if no authentication is required or to ignore server certificates so that all servers are trusted. If you are using single authentication and to accept trusted servers only, then disable this option and specify a truststore containing the trusted server certificates.

    Client truststore When using single authentication, the client truststore contains the certificates of all trusted servers. Click Browse to specify a KS, JKS, or JCEKS file containing valid certificates of the trusted servers.

    Password If the client truststore file is encrypted, set the password required to access the file.

    Mutual Authentication

      Use client-side certificate

      If you are using double authentication, select this option to specify a keystore containing the client certificate. This certificate allows the server to authenticate the client.

      Client certificate keystore Click Browse to specify a KS, JKS, or JCEKS file containing a valid certificate that authenticates the client.
      Password If the client truststore file is encrypted, set the password required to access the file.

    You can copy the contents from an SSL configuration into another SSL configuration by using Copy and Paste in the SSL editor.

  4. Click OK to create the configuration, and close the SSL editor.


What to do next

When the SSL configuration is created, you can use the SSL configuration with any service request that uses SSL certification. You can use the SSL editor to edit existing configurations.
