We have a requirement to send HTTPS requests and receive HTTPS from WBIMB. WBIMB doesn't support this i believe so was wondering on the best approach?
use SSL tunneling?
Does the IBM Websphere Business Integrator Adaptor for Web Services provide us with this functionality?
Support PAC IE01 appears to be for Requests only? is this correct?
I'll be contacting IBM for their assistance also.
any ideas/guidance welcome.
Many thanks

They're going to be supplying a support pack at some point to do this directly.
But just use Apache or some other Apache-like webserver as an SSL proxy.

I think MQIPT doesn't act as a proxy for purely HTTP traffic.
It will bridge MQ <->HTTP, but I don't think it can HTTP<->HTTPS.
Stunnel works.

Jeff is right (again  ), MQIPT won't work as a HTTP/HTTPS proxy. The MQIPT manual contains an HTTPProxy section but this describes only the connection forwarding to a HTTP proxy (e.g. IBM Web Traffic Express).

For receiving HTTPS into the broker, you can use SupportPac IE01 WebSphere BI Message Broker - Proxy Servlet for the HTTP nodes.
For calling out to HTTPS, you could indeed use the Web Services adapter. Alternatively you could use stunnel or something similar, or write a plugin node. |

Does the new version of IE01 support HTTPS for calling out of WBIMB? The pdf that comes with the v2.0 of this support pack says that it supports the HTTPS for reply as well. But it is not clear from support pack files if the HTTPS is supported and I could not test it also. So is Stunnel the only option for WBIMB if we don't want to go for Web service adapter ?

| For HTTPS call-out (i.e. HTTPRequest rather than HTTPInput+HTTPReply), you either need WMB v6, or you can use Stunnel or the adapter. |
