Client queue storage type
and
lifecycle
Determine the default storage type for client queues and how Broker deals with a client's state upon disconnection (the properties are set as a pair).
The possible settings are:
*Volatile (destroy on disconnect)
*Guaranteed (explicit destroy) (the default setting)
For more information, see Client Queue Storage Type and Client Lifecycle.
Access Control List (ACL)
Optional. Specify the basic authentication identity or the SSL identity of clients permitted to join the client group. There are two ACLs, and you can configure one or both:
*User ACL
*For basic authentication, a list of basic authentication user names.
*For SSL, a list of clients specified by their user distinguished names, or DNs.
*Authenticator ACL
*For basic authentication, a list of basic authentication directory aliases (for example, LDAP and ADSI).
*For SSL, a list of certificate issuer DNs (authorization names).
Encryption
Whether to use SSL encryption with a 128-bit key length. By default, encryption is enabled.
To enable encryption for a client group, its Broker Server must have an SSL identity, and the current user must have permission to configure encryption. For more information, see Using SSL Encryption.
Access label required
Whether clients must have an access label to join the client group. By default, no label is required.
Access labels are an advanced security feature of Broker. For more information, see Using Access Labels.
