The Java™ command line interface to IKEYMAN, gsk7cmd, provides the necessary options to create and manage keys, certificates and certificate requests.
To have a secure network connection, create a key for secure network communications and receive a certificate from a certificate authority (CA) that is designated as a trusted CA on your server. Use gsk7cmd, the utility command line interface, for configuration tasks that are related to public and private key creation and management.
The gsk7cmd user interface uses Java and native command line invocation, enabling IKEYMAN task scripting.
You cannot use gsk7cmd for configuration options that update the server configuration file, httpd.conf. For options that update the server configuration file, use the IBM® HTTP Server administration server.
