Automating SSL configurations using scripting

SSL configuration is needed for WebSphere® to perform SSL connections with other servers. A SSL configuration can be configured through the Admin Console. But if an automated way to create a SSL configuration is desired then AdminTask should be used.

Before you begin

Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

About this task

AdminTask can be used in a interactive mode and batch mode. For automation the batch mode options should be used. AdminTask batch mode can be called in a JACL or Python script. Interactive mode will step through all the parameter the task needs, requires ones are marked with a '*'. Before the interactive task executes the task it echoes the batch mode syntax of the task to the screen. This can be helpful when writing batch mode scripts.

There attributes needed to create an ssl configurations:
  • A key store
  • Default client certificate alias
  • Default server certificate alias
  • Trust store
  • The handshake protocol
  • The ciphers needed during handshake
  • Supporting client authentication or not
If automating the creation of a SSL Configuration it may be needed to create some of the attribute values needed like the key store, truststore, key manager, and trust managers.
