Add an unsecured bus
By default, bus security is enabled and you add buses with security configured. However, we can add a new service integration bus without any security settings. To secure the bus at a later date, we can do so by configuring the security settings for the bus.
To add a bus, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:
- In the navigation pane, click Service integration -> Buses. A list of buses is displayed.
- In the content pane, click New.
- Type a name for the new bus. We must choose bus names that are compatible with the WebSphere MQ queue manager naming restrictions. We cannot change a bus name after the bus is created, which means that we can only interoperate with WebSphere MQ in the future if you use compatible names. See the topic about WebSphere MQ naming restrictions in the related links.
- Clear the Bus security check box to disable bus security.
- Click Next.
- Review the summary of the settings for the new bus, then click Finish.
- Save the changes to the master configuration.
Results
Bus security is disabled, and we have added a new unsecured service integration bus.
What to do next
We can now add servers or server clusters to the bus.
