Create and deploy custom WS-Security profiles

Each WSRP security profile is defined as a directory in the file system containing two descriptor files ibm-webservicesclient-bnd.xmi and ibm-webservicesclient-ext.xmi.

We can generate these files using an assembly tool for IBM Web Service clients. To modify the set of run time security profiles:

1. Extract all security profiles to a working directory.

2. Apply the required changes to the files in the working directory

3. Synchronize the working directory with the configuration repository.

To perform these tasks, use the two portal configuration tasks described in the following.

1. Create the client security binding and extension files using an assembly tool
   We can create the files required for a WSRP security profile in the assembly tool by configuring the security options for Web applications that define a Web service client.
2. Change the the WSRP WS-Security profiles
   To change the set of security profiles, for example, add new profiles, delete existing profiles, or modify the descriptor files of existing profiles, you need to first extract the current configuration to a working directory. Later you synchronize your updates with the run time configuration. To do this, we use configuration tasks.
