6.13.4 Setting up the communication encryption function of JP1/Base

Set up the communication encryption function of JP1/Base. You must specify settings such as whether to enable SSL communication and the file names of a server certificate and root certificate for the communication encryption function. This setup is required in JP1/Base on the server and client sides.

To set up the communication encryption function:

  1. Create an SSL communication definition file (jp1bs_ssl.conf).

    Define the SSL communication settings information such as whether to enable SSL communication, the file name of a server certificate, and the storage location of a root certificate in the SSL communication definition file. For details about the SSL communication definition file, see SSL communication definition file in 16. Definition Files.

  2. Execute the jbssetcnf command.

    jbssetcnf jp1bs_ssl.conf

    The information of the SSL communication definition file is registered in the common definition information. For details about the jbssetcnf command, see jbssetcnf in 15. Commands.

  3. Restart JP1/Base.

    The settings of the common definition information will take effect.

Note:
  • You cannot change the settings of the communication encryption function while JP1/Base is running. Before changing the settings of the communication encryption function (to replace the server certificate or root certificate due to expiration), stop JP1/Base.

  • Even if you upgrade from the environment in which the communication encryption function (SSL communication) provided by JP1/Base 11-00 or later is enabled, the communication encryption function (SSL communication) supported by 12-10 does not get enabled. To enable SSL communication, add jp1bsagent to BASESSL in the SSL communication definition file, and then restart JP1/Base.
