Client Certificate Key Store Tab

The settings on the Client Certificate Key Store tab are only required when a client requires that HTTPS connections are authenticated with a certificate. The Client Certificate Key Store tab contains the following fields:

Key Store File: The location of the key store (which contains the trusted server certificates) for authenticating the HTTPS server. You can browse for the key store on the file system by clicking the button next to the field. If a key store is not specified, then the HTTPS server will be treated as a trusted server. Certificates can be managed in
Managed File Transfer
's SSL Certificate Manager page.

A default key store is provided in
Managed File Transfer
for holding trusted server certificates. The location of this key store is
[installdirectory]/userdata/keys/x509/trustedCertificates.jks
where [installdirectory] is the installation directory of the
Managed File Transfer
product.
Password: The password to use for accessing the trusted Server Certificate Store. After entering the password, you can optionally click the
Encrypt
button, which will encrypt the password when it is stored in
Managed File Transfer
's database.

If you do not wish to store the password with the HTTPS server resource, this password can be supplied when executing a Project.
Is Password Encrypted: Indicates whether or not the password for the Server Certificate Store is encrypted. You should choose the option of
Yes
if you clicked the
Encrypt
button for the Server Certificate Store Password.
Alias: A particular key within the default key store can be used for client authentication by indicating the key alias. The specified key will be used when required by the HTTPS server.
Type: Indicates if the type of the key store is
JKS
(Java Keystore) or
PKCS12
(Public Key Cryptology Standard). If this field is left blank, then the default store type of JKS will be used.

The default key stores provided with the installation of
Managed File Transfer
are JKS type.
