To all,
We have SSL protection on our MQ connections.
Does anyone have an instruction/link to instruction or help on how to get Hermes JMS working with SSL so I can use SOAP UI to test MQ services.
I have Hermes working correctly with Websphere MQ without SSL.
I have x.JKS and x.KDB files.
Thanks a bunch as always,
EMC |

Hi Eric,
If you are using SOAPUI you need to make sure you added the correct *.jks file to the soap configuration. Then check on your connection factory setup whether you added all the relevant fields and values for SSL (like SSL Cipher Suite and such... FIPS...).
This should then allow you to create an SSL enabled connection.
If I might suggest: Create 2 Hermes setup entries. One without SSL and one with SSL. So you know you just need to add the SSL info to the one working without SSL.
Have fun  _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

Hi FJ,
I hope all is well.
Do I need to configure SOAP UI and Hermes for SSL if I'm trying to connect to SSL protected MQ?
There is a field in the Hermes Connection Factory for MQ which is called SslCipherSuite. How do I set that field correctly? Do I need to configure more than the SslCipherSuite to reach SSL protected MQ 7.5?
Thanks FJ |

You need to make sure SOAP UI / HERMES has access to the jks keystore/truststore. You need to specify following features on the qcf:
- SSLCipherSuite
- SSLFipsRequired
- SSLPeerName
For the SSLCipherSuite and SSLFipsRequired check out the table in
