Client Certificate Key Store Tab

Client Certificate Key Store Tab

The settings on the Client Certificate Key Store tab are only required when a client requires that its 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 FTPS 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 FTPS 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 private keys. The location of this key store is
[installdirectory]/userdata/keys/x509/privateKeys.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 FTPS server resource, this password can be supplied when executing a Project.
Is Password Encrypted
Indicates whether or not the password for the Client Certificate Store is encrypted. You should choose the option of
Yes
if you clicked the
Encrypt
button for the Client Certificate Store Password.
Alias
Each certificate in the Key Store is identified by an alias name. If the field is left blank,
Managed File Transfer
will try to determine the correct certificate. If an Alias is specified,
Managed File Transfer
will only use that certificate for authentication.
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, the default is JKS.
The default key stores provided with the installation of
Managed File Transfer
are JKS.
