SSL and TLS-Related Parameters in Eapps.cfg


SSL and TLS-related parameters can be included in the [connmgmt] section of the eapps.cfg file if you are using SSL or TLS to encrypt SISNAPI communications between the Web server and the Siebel Server. Table 34 describes these parameters. For more information on configuring SSL or TLS encryption, see Configuring SSL or TLS Encryption for SWSE.

NOTE:  The use of SSL encryption is not supported for high-security implementations of Siebel Business Applications. It is recommended that you implement TLS encryption where possible. For additional information, see Using Secure Socket Layer v3.0 with Siebel CRM.

Table 34. SSL / TLS Parameters in the Eapps.cfg File
Parameter Name
Description

CACertFileName

Identifies the trusted authority who issued the certificate.

CertFileName

Specifies the name of the ASN.1/PEM certificate file.

KeyFileName

Specifies the name of the PEM private key file.

KeyFilePassword

Specifies the password to decrypt the private key file.

PeerAuth

Enables peer authentication during the SSL or TLS handshake. PeerAuth is FALSE by default. Set PeerAuth to TRUE to authenticate certificates from the Siebel Server. The SWSE requires the certifying authority's certificate to authenticate the certificate from the Siebel Server.

PeerCertValidation

Independently verifies that the hostname of the SWSE computer matches the hostname presented in the certificate.
