Copy the following files from the SSL-J provider directory to the extended functionality directory:

• sslj.jar
• cryptoj.jar
• certj.jar

SSL-J provider directory:

JDK-installation-path/jre/lib/sslj

Extended functionality directory:

JDK-installation-path/jre/lib/ext

Register the SSL-J providers in the security property file.

Security property file:

JDK-installation-path/jre/lib/security/java.security

Use the following format for registering the SSL-J providers:

Registration format:

security.provider.priority-level=provider-class-name

• For priority-level, specify the level of provider priority with a positive integer. Specifying a smaller number increases the priority.
• For provider-class-name, specify the SSL-J provider class names. These should be com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE and com.rsa.jsse.JsseProvider.

The Security property file already contains the providers offered by Java SE 6. Specify higher priority levels for the additional SSL-J providers (com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE and com.rsa.jsse.JsseProvider) than for the existing providers. In addition, reduce the priority levels for the existing providers.

Below is an example of registering the SSL-J providers in the Security property file. The file contents shown in this example might differ from those before registration, depending on how the platform and update are applied, and on differences in the user environment.

Example:

Before registration

security.provider.1=sun.security.provider.Sun security.provider.2=sun.security.rsa.SunRsaSign security.provider.3=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider security.provider.4=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE security.provider.5=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider security.provider.6=com.sun.security.sasl.Provider security.provider.7=org.jcp.xml.dsig.internal.dom.XMLDSigRI security.provider.8=sun.security.smartcardio.SunPCSC security.provider.9=sun.security.mscapi.SunMSCAPI

After registration

security.provider.1=com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE security.provider.2=com.rsa.jsse.JsseProvider security.provider.3=sun.security.provider.Sun security.provider.4=sun.security.rsa.SunRsaSign security.provider.5=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider security.provider.6=com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE security.provider.7=sun.security.jgss.SunProvider security.provider.8=com.sun.security.sasl.Provider security.provider.9=org.jcp.xml.dsig.internal.dom.XMLDSigRI security.provider.10=sun.security.smartcardio.SunPCSC security.provider.11=sun.security.mscapi.SunMSCAPI

Characters in bold type indicate changes due to SSL-J provider registration. These changes have been made as follows:

• The SSL-J provider class names (com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE and com.rsa.jsse.JsseProvider) have been specified for priority levels 1 and 2.
• The priority levels for the previously registered providers have been changed to levels from 3 to 11.
