Communicating Securely Using SSL
Because Trading Networks runs in Integration Server, it takes advantage of Integration Server features, such as its support of SSL for secure communications. To enable Trading Networks to act as an SSL client connecting to a remote secure server, you specify an SSL client certificate in your Enterprise profile or your partner’s profile.
When using SSL connections that require client-side authentication, Trading Networks looks at the sender’s profile to see whether it contains the specific private key to use to connect to the receiver (the remote secure server).
The table lists the type of secure communication that Trading Networks uses for the three situations:
Situation
Secure Communication that Trading Networks uses
Finds a set of certificates to use for that specific receiver
The private key from that certificate set.
Does not find a set of certificates to use for that specific receiver
The default private key specified in the sender’s profile.
Does not find a default private key specified in the sender’s profile
The default certificates specified in the Integration Server.
