Connect Using SSL

Communication between the Provisioning Server/Java Connector Server and the OS/400 machine is secured by SSL. Using SSL is optional in both links and can be switched on when acquiring the OS/400 machine. Certificates are used to authenticate the server and encrypt communications and the username and password are used to authenticate the client request on the OS/400 machine.

To use SSL, the Java Connector Server machine must have the endpoint certificate installed in the java certificate store in the JRE in which the Java Connector Server machine is running. Click here for information on how to configure the Java Server Connector.
