Collection certificate store configuration settings page

Use this page to specify the name and the provider for a collection certificate store. A collection certificate store is a collection of non-root, certificate authority (CA) certificates and certificate revocation lists (CRLs). This collection of CA certificates and CRLs is used to check the signature of a digitally signed SOAP message.

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 Web Services Security.

3. Under Additional properties, click Collection certificate store.

4. Specify a new collection certificate store by clicking New or by clicking the collection certificate store name to modify its settings.

4. Under Additional properties, we can access collection certificate stores for the following bindings:

   • For the Request receiver binding click Edit > Collection certificate store.

   • For the Response receiver binding, click Edit > Collection certificate store.

5. Specify a new collection certificate store by clicking New or by clicking the collection certificate store name to modify its settings.

After configuring a collection certificate store, we can select the new configuration under Certificate store on the token generator and token consumer panels. To access these panels...

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

2. Under JAX-RPC Default Generator Bindings, click Token generators or under JAX-RPC Default Consumer Bindings, click Token consumers.

3. Click New to create a new token generator or token consumer, or click the name of an existing configuration to make modifications.

After you configure your collection certificate store on this panel, you must click Apply before configuring either the certificate revocation list or an X.509 certificate. After you configure your certificate revocation list or X.509 certificate, complete the following steps:

1. Click Save, at the top of the dmgr console panel, which returns you to the list of the configured collection certificate stores.

2. Click Update runtime to update the Web Services Security run time with the default binding information, which is found in the ws-security.xml file.

Certificate store name

Name for the certificate store.

The name of the collection certificate store must be unique in the scope. For example, the name must be unique at the server level. The name specified in Certificate store name field is used by other configurations to refer to a pre-defined collection certificate store. For example, the application binding refers to a collection certificate store defined on the server level. The application server looks up the collection certificate store based on proximity. For example, if cert1 is defined as the name of the certificate store on the cell and server levels and cert1 is referenced in the application binding, the application server uses the server-level collection certificate store.

Certificate Store Provider

Provider for the certificate store implementation.

WAS v8.5 supports the IBMCertPath certificate path provider. If you need to use another certificate path provider, define the provider implementation in the provider list within the java.security file in the SDK.
