You can configure cryptographic token support in both client and server configurations. To configure a Java client application, use the sas.client.props configuration file. By default, the sas.client.props file is located in the properties directory under the <install_root> of your WebSphere Application Server installation. To configure a WebSphere Application Server, use the administrative console. To start the administrative console, specify URL: http://<server_hostname>:9090/admin.
Before you begin
To understand how to make WebSphere Application Server (both the runtime and the iKeyman utility) work correctly with any cryptographic token device, become familiar with the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) documentation that is available on the DeveloperWorks Web site at the following address: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/security/ . On this Web site, select the appropriate Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) version and read the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) and iKeyman documentation.
Unzip the install_root/web/docs/jsse/native-support.zip file and copy the correct libraries, with respect to target operating system, to the appropriate location. Otherwise, link errors might occur at run time, or the key management tool might not work properly with the cryptographic device library.
Follow the documentation that accompanies your device to install your cryptographic device. Installation instructions for IBM cryptographic hardware devices can be found in the Administration section of Resources for learning.
