Activating SSL Settings
The following procedure specifies global SSL encryption settings that apply to all ports on the server. For information about specifying a keystore file for a specific FTP, FTPS, HTTP, or HTTPS port, see
Specifying a Keystore File for a
Port.
To activate SSL settings
1. In My webMethods: Administration > Integration > Managed File Transfer > Server Management.
3. Click the Encryption tab.
4. In the SSL section, click Activate.
5. For Keystore Location, specify the path to the keystore file (for example, “C:\keystore” on Windows and “/usr/keystore” on UNIX).
6. In the Keystore Password box, type the keystore password.
7. In the Private Key Password box, type the private key password.
8. If you want to block all connections from the client when the client does not have a valid client certificate key password, select the Require valid client certificate for blank passwords check box.
Note: When this check box is selected, ActiveTransfer Server expects the clients requesting a server connection to present a valid certificate. The certificate should match one of the certificates stored in the truststore. To store valid certificates, you must create a truststore file in the same location as the keystore file, with the name keystoreName_trust. For example, if the keystore file name is server_ks.jks, the truststore name should be server_ks.jks_trust. You should add all of the valid client certificates to this truststore.
9. If you want to use the SSL keystore settings for file upload and download operations using acceleration, select the Enable advanced upload/download option in web client check box.
10. Click Save.
