Part reference settings

To specify a reference to the message parts for signature and encryption defined in the deployment descriptors.

To view this admin console page on the cell level for signing information...

1. Click Security > JAX-WS and JAX-RPC security runtime.

2. Under JAX-RPC Default Generator Bindings or JAX-RPC Default Consumer Bindings, click Signing information > signing_information_name.

3. Under Additional properties, click Part references.

4. Click New to create a part reference or click the name of an existing configuration to modify its settings.

To view this admin console page on the server level for signing information...

1. Click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server_name.

2. Under Security, click JAX-WS and JAX-RPC security runtime.

   In a mixed node cell with a server using Websphere Application Server version 6.1 or earlier, click Web services: Default bindings for WS-Security

3. Under JAX-RPC Default Generator Bindings or JAX-RPC Default Consumer Bindings, click Signing information > signing_information_name.

4. Under Additional properties, click Part references.

5. Click New to create a part reference or click the name of an existing configuration to modify its settings.

To view this admin console page on the application level for signing information...

Part references are available through the admin console using Version 6.0.x applications only.

1. Click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise apps > application_name .

2. Click Manage modules > URI_name .

3. Under WS-Security Properties, we can access the signing information for the following bindings:

   • For the Request generator (sender) binding, click Web services: Client security bindings. Under Request generator (sending) binding, click Edit custom.

   • For Response consumer (receiver) binding, click Web services: Client security bindings. Under Response consumer (receiver) binding, click Edit custom.

   • For the Request consumer (receiver) binding, click Web services: Server security bindings. Under Request consumer (receiver) binding, click Edit custom.

   • For the Response generator (sender) binding, click Web services: Server security bindings. Under Response generator (sender) binding, click Edit custom.

4. Under Required properties, click Signing information > signing_information_name.

5. Under Additional properties, click Part references.

6. Click New to create a part reference or click the name of an existing configuration to modify its settings.

Specify a part name and select a part reference before specifying additional properties. Before specifying the digest method properties that are accessible under Additional properties, specify a digest method algorithm on this panel. If we specify none and click Digest method, an error message is displayed.

Part name

Name assigned to the part reference configuration.

Part reference

Name of the <integrity> or <requiredIntegrity> element for the signed part of the message or it specifies the name of the <confidentiality> or <requiredConfidentiality> element for the encrypted part of the message in the deployment descriptor.

The part names defined in the deployment descriptor are listed as options in this field. This field is displayed for the binding configuration on the application level only.

Digest method algorithm

Algorithm URI of the digest method used for the signed part specified by the part reference.

This product provides the following predefined algorithm URIs:

• http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1

• http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha256

• http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha512

To specify a custom algorithm, configure the custom algorithm in the Algorithm URI panel before setting the digest method algorithm.

To access the Algorithm URI panel, complete the following steps for the cell level:

1. Click Security > JAX-WS and JAX-RPC security runtime.

2. Under Additional properties, click Algorithm mappings > algorithm_factory_engine_class_name > Algorithm URI > New.

The specified algorithms are listed as options for this field.

To access the Algorithm URI panel, complete the following steps for the server level:

1. Click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server_name.

2. Under Security, click JAX-WS and JAX-RPC security runtime.

   In a mixed node cell with a server using Websphere Application Server version 6.1 or earlier, click Web services: Default bindings for WS-Security

3. Under Additional properties, click Algorithm mappings > algorithm_factory_engine_class_name > Algorithm URI > New.

The specified algorithms are listed as options for this field.

When specify the Algorithm URI, you also must specify an algorithm type. To have the algorithm display as a selection in the Digest method algorithm field on the Part reference panel, select Digest value calculation (Message digest) as the algorithm type.
