Content
To provide detailed instructions for using the MQ 9.1 REST API in Linux and in Windows
with No Security.
with No Security.
The explicit disabling of security might be suitable for Testing environments, but it is not
suitable for Production environments.

Divide and conquer! For novice users it is easier to do the implementation in 2 stages:
* Stage 1: Setup the MQ Web Server without security and quick test.
Stage 1.a: The setup of the MQ Web Server is provided in the following tutorial:

(for Testing the MQ Web Console)
Stage 1.b: Do a quick test of the MQ REST API. This is the focus for this tutorial.
* Stage 2: After Stage 1 is successfully implemented, then the desired security method can
be added. This topic is NOT covered in this tutorial.
