Anatomy of an Integration Server SSL Connection
 
Integration Server and SSL Connection Type
Integration Server as an SSL Server
Integration Server as an SSL Client
It is useful to conceptualize an Integration Server SSL connection in terms of an SSL server and an SSL client. The request for an SSL connection originates from a client. The client can be one of the following:
*A partner application
*An Internet resource
*A web browser
*An Integration Server
During the SSL handshake process, the entity acting as the SSL server responds to the request for a connection by presenting its SSL credentials (an X.509 certificate) to the requesting client. If those credentials are authenticated by the client, either:
*An SSL connection is established and information can be exchanged between the client and server.
- or -
*The next phase of the authentication process occurs, and the server requests the SSL credentials of the client. If the server verifies those credentials (that is, the client's identity), an SSL connection is established and information exchange can take place.
