Method Detail

getDefault

public static javax.net.SocketFactory getDefault()

Returns the default SSL socket factory.

createSocket

public java.net.Socket createSocket(java.lang.String host,
                                    int port)
                             throws java.net.UnknownHostException,
                                    java.io.IOException

Creates a new secure socket to the named host and port. The host and port refer to the logical destination server. This socket is configured using the socket options established for this factory.

Parameters:

host - the server host

port - the server port

Overrides:

createSocket in class javax.net.SocketFactory

createSocket

public java.net.Socket createSocket(java.lang.String host,
                                    int port,
                                    int timeout)
                             throws java.net.UnknownHostException,
                                    java.io.IOException

createSocket

public java.net.Socket createSocket(java.net.InetAddress address,
                                    int port)
                             throws java.net.UnknownHostException,
                                    java.io.IOException

Creates a new secure socket to the named host and port. The host and port refer to the logical destination server. This socket is configured using the socket options established for this factory.

Parameters:

address - represents an Internet Protocol (IP) address

port - the server port

Overrides:

createSocket in class javax.net.SocketFactory

createSocket

public java.net.Socket createSocket(java.lang.String host,
                                    int port,
                                    java.net.InetAddress clientAddress,
                                    int clientPort)

Overrides:

createSocket in class javax.net.SocketFactory

createSocket

public java.net.Socket createSocket(java.net.InetAddress address,
                                    int port,
                                    java.net.InetAddress clientAddress,
                                    int clientPort)

Overrides:

createSocket in class javax.net.SocketFactory

getDefaultCipherSuites

public java.lang.String[] getDefaultCipherSuites()

Returns the list of cipher suites that are enabled by default. Unless a different list is enabled, the SSL connection will use one of these cipher suites. The minimum quality of service for these defaults requires confidentiality protection and server authentication.

Returns:

an array of cipher suites enabled by default

getSupportedCipherSuites

public java.lang.String[] getSupportedCipherSuites()

Returns the names of the cipher suites that can be enabled for use on an SSL connection. Normally, only a subset of these cipher suites will be enabled by default since the list of cipher suites may include cipher suites that do not meet quality of service requirements for those defaults.

Returns:

an array of cipher suite names

setSSLClientInfo

public void setSSLClientInfo(weblogic.security.SSL.SSLClientInfo sslCI)

getSSLClientInfo

protected weblogic.security.SSL.SSLClientInfo getSSLClientInfo()
