Setting RSA and DSA Encryption

B2B Integration : Managing File Transfers with ActiveTransfer : Managing ActiveTransfer Server : Setting SSH Encryption Algorithm, Ciphers, and Connection Options : Setting RSA and DSA Encryption

ActiveTransfer supports both RSA and DSA encryption.

Note:

The following procedure applies only to ports that use the SFTP protocol.When you create a default SFTP port in ActiveTransfer Server or ActiveTransfer Gateway, the default RSA and DSA keys are used for login. The default RSA and DSA keys are adequate for demo or testing purposes. However, in production environments, we recommend that you replace these default keys with your own RSA and DSA keys.

To set RSA or DSA encryption

1. In My webMethods: Administration > Integration > Managed File Transfer > Server Management.

2. Select the server instance. For details, see Selecting the Instance to Work With.

3. On the Ports tab, select an SFTP port from the list of ports.

4. Click the Advanced tab.

5. In the SSH - Server Host Keys section, do either or both of the following:

To enable RSA, click the Activate link and then specify the full path of the file that contains the key for the RSA algorithm.

To enable DSA, click the Activate link and then specify the full path of the file that contains the key for the DSA algorithm.

Note:

For an ActiveTransfer Gateway, specify the path of the server on which ActiveTransfer Gateway is running.

6. Click Save.

Tip:	To deactivate RSA or DSA, click the relevant Deactivate link.
