06 May 2009 This tutorial provides a series of tasks to
configure Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for secure outbound Web service calls from
IBM® WebSphere® Commerce to IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
It also provides tasks to configure SSL with the transport
protocol HTTPS.
Before you start
Using a secure protocol like HTTPS is essential for communications
between two systems, especially when the request is carrying
un-encrypted data. This tutorial provides detailed step-by-step
information on how to configure HTTPS for outbound communication from
WebSphere Commerce to WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (hereafter
called WebSphere ESB). In the examples in this tutorial, WebSphere
Commerce acts as a client to the Web services hosted in WebSphere ESB.
Objectives
Learn how to:
- Create a trust store and key store in WebSphere ESB.
- Create a SSL Configuration in WebSphere ESB.
- Create a secure Web container transport chain in WebSphere ESB
and assign it to the application.
- Add signer certificates to trust stores in WebSphere ESB and
WebSphere Commerce.
- Specify a key store for outbound calls in WebSphere
Commerce.
- Enforce client authentication in WebSphere ESB.
Prerequisites
You should have some familiarity with the Administration Console and
iKeyman utility in WebSphere Application Server. You should be
familiar with the WebSphere Commerce Administration Console to
configure the end-point URLs for the outbound Web service calls.
System requirements
To follow the examples in this tutorial, you need WebSphere Commerce
V6.0 with Feature Pack 1 and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V6.1.
