Trust anchor configuration settings

 

Trust anchors point to key stores that contain trusted root or self-signed certificates. This information enables you to specify a name for the trust anchor and the information needed to access a key store. The application binding uses this name to reference a predefined trust anchor definition in the binding file (or the default).

To configure a trust anchor go to...

Servers | Application Servers | server | Web Services: Default bindings for Web Services Security | Trust Anchors | New

...and set...

Trust Anchor Name	Specifies the unique name used by the application binding to reference a predefined trust anchor definition in the default binding.
Key Store Password	Specifies the password needed to access the key store file.
Key Store Path	Specifies the location of the keystore file. Use ${USER_INSTALL_ROOT}
Key Store Type	Specifies the type of key store file. The value in this field is either JKS or JCEKS. JKS Specify this option if you are not using JCE. JCEKS Specify this option if you are using JCE. Although the JCEKS key store format is more secure, it decreases performance. Data type String Default JKS Range JKS, JCEKS
