Types of Integration Gateway Configuration

An integration gateway requires several types of configuration:

Term	Definition
Security configuration	You can implement PeopleSoft Integration Broker security in several ways. At a minimum you must install digital certificates on the machine on which the gateway is installed. Complete the certificate installation before continuing with the gateway configuration in this topic. Once the gateway's digital certificates are installed, you must enter several configuration parameters in the Integration Gateway Certificates Section of the integrationGateway.properties file. The parameters you must set are the certificate alias name, the certificate alias password, the path to the keystore, and the keystore password. See Installing Digital Certificates on the Integration Gateway Installing Integration Gateway-Based Digital Certificates.
General configuration	This includes settings for the gateway version, class location, general communication parameters, node connection parameters, message and error logging, and gateway type and location. Most of these settings are entries in the integrationGateway.properties file, but you set a few of them in the Gateways component.
Connector-specific configuration	The number of configuration settings and where they're applied depend on the connector. You configure most of the target connectors delivered with PeopleSoft Integration Broker by using the Gateways component, but some require settings in the integrationGateway.properties file. A few require settings in both environments. Note: You can override some target connector properties for an individual node.
