  specify sha256 signature algorithm.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All Users of IBM App Connect Enterprise V11.0 and IBM
  Integration Bus V10.0 trying to use SHA-2 signature algorithm
  for SOAP WS-Security.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  Linux on x86-64 platform, Windows on x86-64 platform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The product currently supports only RSA-SHA1 signature algorithm
  for SOAP WS-Security. It doesn't support SHA-2 signature
  algorithms like RSA-SHA256 and RSA-SHA512<span

Problem conclusion

• A new combo box is provided in the advanced panel of policy
  binding editor with the list of supported SHA-2 signature
  algorithms. Following are the values in the combo box and its
  associated signature algorithm<div>
  rsa-sha256  for
