Hi,
We run WMB 6105 on windows.
We have HTTPS connection to another company where the certificate will be changed soon. I try to figure out what I need to do. I have some questions
1) When I list the properties from
mqsireportproperties <Broker> -b httplistener -o HTTPSConnector -r
I get
" clientAuth='Platform Default' "
Is Client Auth per default false?
2) Is it true as I can see in
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27012172&aid=1
That personal certificats are put in a keystore defined by mqsichangeproperties <broker_name> -b httplistener -o HTTPSConnector -n keystoreFile -v <keystore file name>
but The Trusted (Signer or CA) Certificates from the client must be added to the broker’s default keystore – cacerts ?
I manual says
-n clientAuth
Set to true if the SSL stack requires a valid certificate chain from the client before accepting a connection. A false value (which is the default) does not require a certificate chain unless the client requests a resource protected by a security constraint that uses CLIENT-CERT authentication.
•Value type - string
•Initial value - false
So the default is false.
I have not done SSL on broker. But SSL for MQ java , I have both the key store and trust store pointing to the same jks file. So both CA_CERT and Client_CERT are in the same store. That works for me (may be just lucky or al least not the best practice).
