Field | Description |
HTTPS listener configuration | |
Port | Specify the number you want to use for the port. Select a number that is not already in use on this host machine. |
Alias | Specifies an alias for the port that is unique for this API Gateway. An alias must be between 1 and 255 characters in length and include one or more of the following: letters (a -z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), underscore (_), period (.), and hyphen (-). |
Description (optional) | Provide a description of the port. |
Bind address (optional) | Specifies the IP address to which to bind this port. Specify a bind address if your machine has multiple IP addresses and you want the port to use this specific address. If you do not specify a bind address, API Gateway picks one for you. |
Backlog | Specifies the number of requests that can remain in the queue for an enabled port before API Gateway begins rejecting requests. The default is 200. The maximum value is 65535. |
Keep alive timeout | Specifies when to close the connection if the server has not received a request from the client within this timeout value (in milliseconds) or when to close the connection if the client has explicitly placed a close request with the server. |
Private threadpool configuration. Specifies whether to create a private thread pool for this port or use the common thread pool. | |
Enable | Select to enable the private threadpool configuration for this port. |
Threadpool min | Specifies the minimum number of threads for this private threadpool. The default is 1. |
Threadpool max | Specifies the maximum number of threads for this private thread pool. The default is 5. |
Thread priority | Specifies the Java thread priority. The default is 5. |
Security configuration | |
Use JSSE | Select Yes to create the port using the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) socket factory for the port to support TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.2. The default value is Yes. If you set this value to No, the port supports only SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0. |
Client authentication | Specifies the type of client authentication you want API Gateway to perform for requests that arrive on this HTTPS port. Select one of the following: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You have to enable Kerberos by providing the following Kerberos properties with details that are used for handling service requests that come with a Kerberos ticket: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Note: API Gateway supports the username format for Service Principal Names (SPNs). This format represents the principal name as a named user defined in LDAP used for authentication to the KDC. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Listener specific credentials | |
Keystore alias | Specifies a user-specified, text identifier for an API Gateway keystore. The alias points to a repository of private keys and their associated certificates. Although each listener points to one keystore, there can be multiple keys and their certificates in the same keystore, and more than one listener can use the same keystore alias. |
Key alias (signing) | Specifies the private key of keystore. |
Truststore alias | Specifies the public certificates of truststore. The alias points to a repository of public certificates. |
