Response generator binding configuration [Settings]

WS-Security binding for generation of responses to caller.

To view this page in the console, click the following path:

Service integration -> Web services -> WS-Security bindings -> response-generator-binding_name .

You can configure the service integration bus for secure transmission of SOAP messages by using tokens, keys, signatures and encryption in accordance with the Web Services Security (WS-Security) 1.0 specification.

You use WS-Security bindings to secure the SOAP messages that pass between service requesters (clients) and inbound services, and between outbound services and target web services. Bindings provide the information that the run-time environment needs to implement the WS-Security configuration (for example "To sign the body, use this key"),

Bindings are administered independently from any web service that uses them, so you can create a binding then apply it to many web services.

You use a response generator with an inbound configuration. A response generator binding generates the responses from an inbound service to a client.

Configuration tab

The Configuration tab shows configuration properties for this object. These property values are preserved even if the runtime environment is stopped then restarted. See the information center task descriptions for information about how to apply configuration changes to the runtime environment.

General Properties

WS-Security version

Identifies the version of the WS-Security specification this configuration uses.

Required No
Data type String

Binding Type

The type of binding. This is one of request consumer, request generator, response consumer and response generator.

Required No
Data type String

Name

The name of the binding.

This name must be unique, and it must obey the following syntax rules:
  • It must not start with "." (a period).
  • It must not start or end with a space.
  • It must not contain any of the following characters: \ / , # $ @ : ; " * ? < > | = + & % '
Required Yes
Data type String

Use defaults

Specifies whether to use the default binding information. When this option is enabled, Web Services Security uses the default binding information instead of the custom binding information that is defined here.

Required No
Data type Boolean

Additional Properties

Signing information
Specifies the configuration for the signing parameters. You also can use these parameters for X.509 certificate validation when the authentication method is IDAssertion and the ID type is X509Certificate in the server-level configuration. In such cases, only fill in the Certificate path field.
Encryption information
Specifies the configuration for the XML encryption and decryption parameters. If the data and key encryption algorithms are specified, the application server only accepts elements that are encrypted with those algorithms.
Token generators
Specifies the parameters for the token generator. The information is used only on the generator side to generate the security token. Because you can plug in a custom token generator, you must specify a Java class name.
Key information
Specifies the related configuration that is needed to generate the key for XML digital signature or XML encryption.
Key locators
Specifies a list of key locator configurations that retrieve the key for signature and encryption. You can customize a key locator class to retrieve keys from other types of repositories. The default implementation retrieves keys from a keystore.
Collection certificate store
Specifies a list of untrusted, intermediate certificate files. This collection certificate store is used for certificate path validation of incoming X.509-formatted security tokens. The root-trusted certificates are specified in the Trust anchors panel.
Properties
Specifies additional properties for the configuration.
