Central Configurator Security Implementation

Securing the Central Configurator in My webMethods Server
Starting the Configuration Agent
webMethods Password Administrator Utility
Backward Compatibility
Central Configurator supports the use of SSL to secure and encrypt communications between the configuration agents and the configuration engine as well as between the configuration system's own internal communications. All that is needed to enable SSL is to obtain and install certificates in the webMethods glueKeyStore and glueTrustStore of the various components and to change their configuration protocol to HTTPS.
If you are configuring SSL for use in production, Software AG recommends that you secure access to the Central Configurator administrator files. Software AG also recommends that you change the master encryption password. All of these tasks are explained in this chapter.
