Use this page to specify the name and the provider for a collection
certificate store. A collection certificate store is a collection of
nonroot, 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 Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) message.

- Click Security > Web services.
- Under Default generator bindings, click Token generators or under
Default consumer bindings, click Token consumers.

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. The certificate revocation list configuration
is not available for version 5.x applications through the WebSphere Application
Server administrative console. After you configure your certificate revocation
list or X.509 certificate, complete the following steps:
- Click Save, at the top of the administrative console panel, which
returns you to the list of the configured collection certificate stores.
- 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
Specifies the 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 that is defined on the server
level. WebSphere 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.
