Key management overview

The LMI manages the keys that are required to enable SSL communication between WebSEAL and other components of the Verify Identity Access domain.

You can use the LMI to create key database files and manage the digital certificates that are stored in these key database files.

Figure 1 summarizes the key management configuration that WebSEAL uses for SSL communication with other components of the Verify Identity Access environment. The configuration stanzas and stanza entries are in the WebSEAL configuration file.
