I wander how to establish Webdispatcher on EP with HTTPS

I wander how to establish Webdispatcher on EP with HTTPS . I

can do it for HTTP. I found releated link in SAP Library:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d8/a922d7f45f11d5996e00508b5d5211/frameset.htm

but still I do not understand as installation sapwebdisp -bootstap asks me only for HTTP port of mesage server , instance nr for web dispatcher and HTTP port number for SAP webdispatcher.

How to deal with HTTPS?

In library (under SAP Web Dispatcher and SSL ) it is mentioned for HTTPS-HTTPS: icm/server_port_<xx>= ... PROT=HTTPS ...

wdisp/ssl_encrypt=1. Is it in sapwebdisp.pfl? I guess also on EP something should be done(I have a productive system and I would not like to spoil anything)

Yes.

You should setup the QAS environment to support webdispatcher and https first.

Be aware, that there are three different methods for https:

client https> webdispatcher -http-> SAP system

client https> webdispatcher -https-> SAP system (decrypt on webdispatcher and re-encrypt to SAP system)

client https> webdispatcher -https-> SAP system (no decryption on webdispatcher)

Often the first version is sufficient and the simplest one...
