Part IV
Authentication and Encrypted
Communications through Support for SSL
This part of the manual explains how to perform encryption communication using SSL.
Encryption and signature handling require environments for controlling certificates and private keys to be
configured. Interstage uses three different environments described below for those purposes. Select an
environment that is suitable for the services you use and your usage situation.
For this version, use of the Interstage certificate environment is recommended.
• Interstage certificate environment (recommended)
This environment can be shared by multiple services, and allows a unified control of certificates and
private keys. You can access this environment using the Interstage Management Console.
For details on how to configure this environment, refer to Chapter 7, Setting and Use of the Interstage
Certificate Environment.
Note: The following package is required for this environment:
Interstage Management Console
• Certificate/key management environment configured with the SMEE command
This environment needs to be configured separately for the respective services, using the SMEE
command.
For details on how to configure this environment, refer to Chapter 8, Setting and Use of the
Certificate/Key Management Environment Using the SMEE Command.
Note: The following package is necessary for this environment:
Secure communication service
(FJSVsmee package, FJSVsclr package, and FSUNssll package)
• Keystore
The Java encryption packages JSSE (Java Secure Socket Extension) and JCE (Java Cryptography
Extension) are used.
This environment needs to be configured separately for the respective services.
For details on how to set up this environment, refer to Chapter 14, How to prepare PKI Environment
for Web Services (SOAP).
