ToPartner Packaging

These parameters allow you to define the packaging for data being transported to the TP. Find these parameters under the ToPartner Packaging tab. .

The initial set of parameters before SOAP Media Type are eXchange parameters common to all protocol managers. See the eXchange Integrator User’s Guide for information on these parameters.

SOAP Media Type

Description

Specifies the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) media type. In accordance with the SOAP specification, the multipurpose Internet mail extension (MIME) media type of the SOAP message has the value text/xml.

SOAP media type means the content type for SOAP with Attach, which is multipart and related.

Values

Multipart/Related; required.

Default

Multipart/Related

Digital Envelope Protocol

Description

Provides the sender’s requirements for message encryption using the digital-envelope (DIGENV) method. Digital enveloping is a procedure in which the message is encrypted by symmetrical encryption (using a shared secret key), and the secret key is sent to the message recipient encrypted, along with the recipient’s public key.

Values

Select http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#, SMIME2.0, or SMIME3.0; not required.

Default

http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#

Non-Repudiation Protocol

Description

Identifies the technology used to digitally sign a message. This parameter has a single implied version attribute whose value is a string that identifies the version of the specified technology.

Value

Select XMLDSIG; not required.

Default

XMLDSIG

Signature Algorithm

Description

Identifies the algorithm used to compute the value of the digital signature.

Values

Select http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#dsa-sha1, http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#rsa-sha1, or http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#hmac-sha1; not required.

Default

http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#dsa-sha1

Digest Method/HashFunction

Description

Identifies the algorithm used to compute the digest of the message being signed.

Value

Select http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1; not required.

Default

http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1

Canonicalization Method

Description

Identifies the canonicalization method applied to the data to be signed.

Values

Select http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315 or http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315#WithComments; not required.

Default

http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315

Encryption Algorithm

Description

Identifies the encryption algorithm to be used.

Value

Select DES3; not required.

Default

DES3

Signature Type

Description

Specifies the XML digital signature type to be used (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/).

Values

Select Enveloped, Enveloping, Detached, or SoapEnveloped; not required.

Default

SoapEnveloped

Ack Signature Required

Description

Designates how the signed attribute within the AckRequested element in the SOAP message header is set.

Values

Select Always, Never, or perMessage; not required.

Default

None


Note –

When ebXML Protocol Manager sends an encrypted but unsigned message to a TP then gets a signed acknowledgment from the TP, the system cannot verify the signature and logs an error.


Ack Request is Per Message

Description

Allows you to designate whether the AckRequested element within the SOAP message header is operating.

The value true requests an acknowledgment for each message. Setting it to false disables this feature.

Values

true or false; not required.

Default

false

Additional Information

Requesting acknowledgments per message depends on the following configuration parameters in ePM:

If the Ack Request is Per Message value is true, regardless of what is specified in the Send Acknowledgments parameter, the system uses the eXchange setting provided at run-time for outbound messages, that is, the setting under EX_INTERNAL.

If the Ack Request is Per Message value is false, the system checks the value set under Send Acknowledgments. If Send Acknowledgments is true, the system checks for negative acknowledgments. If this value is false, the system ignores negative acknowledgments.

Duplicate Elimination is Per Message

Description

Allows you to designate whether the DuplicateElimination element within the SOAP message header is operating.

If you set this parameter to true, the system keeps each message from being duplicated. Setting it to false disables this feature.

Values

true or false; not required.

Default

false

Additional Information

Eliminating duplicates per message depends on the following configuration parameters in ePM:

If the Duplicate Elimination is Per Message value is true, regardless of what is specified in the Check For Duplicates parameter, the system uses the eXchange setting provided at run-time for outbound messages, that is, the setting under EX_INTERNAL.

If the Duplicate Elimination is Per Message value is false, the system checks the value set under Check For Duplicates. If Check For Duplicates is true, the system checks for duplicates. If this value is false, the system ignores duplicates.

SOAP Actor

Description

Allows you to specify the current message’s final destination. By using toPartyMSH, you make the receiving party the final destination.


Note –

Values are listed in the drop-down menu.


Values

Select urn:oasis:names:tc:ebxml-msg:actor:toPartyMSH; required.

Default

None

Sync Reply

Description

Specifies the mode of the reply to the current message.

Values

Select None or mshSignalsOnly; required.

Default

None

Language

Description

Specifies the language in which the description, errors, and so on, are sent out. Refer to the appropriate ebXML documentation on their Web site for details.

Values

A valid string supplied by the user; required.

Default

en-us (English, U.S.)
