Control Center

Edit online

Once you have created your Connect:Direct® Secure Plus parameter file, you can use IBM Control Center to perform the following functions when implementing the SSL or TLS protocol:

  • Create and update a remote node
  • Update the local node
  • Add and update certificates
  • Create an alias node
  • Select cipher suites
  • Delete a remote node

To perform these functions, you must have a Control Center user ID with IBM Connect:Direct administration authority including privileges to read and write to the IBM Connect:Direct Secure Plus parameter file.

For more information, see Customizing Levels of IBM Connect:Direct Functional Authority in the IBM Connect:Direct for z/OS® Administration Guide. For more information on how to perform these functions, see the documentation for Control Center.
