Admin Tool

Edit online

The Admin Tool enables you to configure and maintain the Connect:Direct® Secure Plus environment. The Admin Tool is the only interface for creating and maintaining the IBM Connect:Direct Secure Plus parameter file. Other operating system utilities and editing tools do not work.

The Admin Tool uses a native ISPF interface. The following sample illustrates the native ISPF interface display of the Create/Update Panel for SSL/TLS parameters. You can change the ISPF settings (Option 0) for the action bar choices and point-and-shoot fields. Changing these settings to fit your personal preferences can enhance operation and navigation in the Admin Tool.

Note: The SP Admin tool is unable to open a Secure parameter file created prior to release 5.2.00. See DGASCONV – Secure Parameter File Conversion Utility for more information.
