7.2 Installing a Certificate from a Certificate Authority

To request and install a signed SSL certificate for the CASD adapter:

1. Request a certificate for the CASD adapter from a Certificate Authority, such as VeriSign.

   Note:

   In the certificate request, make sure to specify the host name or IP address of the system where the CASD adapter is installed. The host name in the certificate must match the host name or IP address the adapter uses. If they do not match, the adapter cannot function.

2. After you obtain the certificate from the Certificate Authority, perform the following steps to install the certificate:

   1. Open a command prompt window and change the working directory to the adapters/conf directory in the CASD adapter installation directory.

   2. Enter the following command to install the certificate, where <certificateFile> is the full path name of the file provided by the Certificate Authority:

      • Unix:

        $JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -importcert -alias iwave -file <certificateFile> -keypass iwavepw -storepass iwavepw -keystore keystore.jks
        

      • Windows:

        "%JAVA_HOME%\bin\keytool" -importcert -alias iwave -file <certificateFile> -keypass iwavepw -storepass iwavepw -keystore keystore.jks
