Configuring for One-way SSL Authentication
When you configure the client for one-way SSL authentication, you only need to specify a truststore and not a keystore. The identity of the Broker Server is authenticated by the client, and must be guaranteed through the Broker Server’s SSL certificate before a connection is made.
You can also configure basic authentication with one-way SSL authentication. For more information, see Securing Broker Server Using Basic Authentication Over SSL.
*To configure one-way SSL authentication for the Broker user interface component
1. In My webMethods: Messaging > Settings > Broker Administrator Identity
2. Select the server to which you want to connect.
Tip:
If there are several servers, to search for the required server, enter the name of the server in Server Name text field and click Search.
3. Click Change Identity.
4. On the Client Authentication dialog, select None from the Client Authentication list box.
5. Select the SSL Truststore that contains the trusted root of the certificate in the selected keystore.
The truststore you use for the Broker user interface must be located on the machine hosting your My webMethods applications.
6. Select the SSL truststore's File Type (certificate file format) from the SSL Truststore Type list.
7. Click Connect.
