Client Authentication

Outbound requests connect from the application server to the integration gateway using an MIME over HTTP connection. To secure the connection you can employ client authentication. This option is typically implemented when the application server and integration gateway reside on separate machines. Client authentication is used only on outbound transactions, since inbound transactions connect between the integration gateway and application server are made using Jolt connection strings.

Note:

If you implement client authentication you must also implement web server SSL encryption.

You can implement client authentication with integration partners running on all PeopleSoft 8.4x systems and third-party systems.
