Protecting a Web service in XI 7.0

Former Member

Hello Experts,

The developers have asked my help to disable access through plain http to a web service...

In theory, ssl is already enabled. As I'm able to access XI through the browser using https (the certificate is self-signed, but that shouldn't be a problem).

The Sender Channel is set as HTTPS with client autentication. We've defined the web service and we are able to use it with plain http.

All the documentation I have found throughout the web is to seal the whole xi with ssl, but we want to secure just one web service.

any help?

Cheers,

I dont think SSL for a service means enabling HTTPS access of the server. For enabling one service to use SSL, you have get a certificate from a CA, import it in to PI Java/ABAP stacks. Then configure in the ABAP stack for the plain http adapter (you might have to create a new one by copying the default HTTP adapter on the ABAP stack).

Not absolutely sure though. Just some info..!!
