SAP PI HTTP to HTTPS

[Former Member]

Hi Everyone

We have a current setup for a vendor that uses HTTP. The Target URL is as such: http://xxx.net:6666/xxx.xxx

This has been working for a year now.

Just now, we were informed that they will be changing their URL from http to https. The new target URL is http://www.xxx.net:6666/xxx.xxx

Aside from changing the URL in the communication channel, what else are needed (and possible checkpoints) to establish the connection between pi and the vendor?

1. certificate update?

2. wsdl update?

3. firewall update?

Any inputs would be of help.

Thanks!

Regards,

PI Noob

Hi,

Some comments:

1. certificate update?

This is needed, although it depends on which stack you are using e.g for Single Stack it is in NWA, while for dual stack, you have a choice between NWA (SOAP Adapter or HTTP_AAE) and STRUST (requires ICM restart) for Plain HTTP Adapter.

2. wsdl update?

Not necessary, WSDL endpoints do not show in ESR. If this is only a URL change, no need to update the ESR objects.

3. firewall update?

It depends on your company's security policy e.g new ports, new firewall rules. But yes, this should also be checked.

Regards,

Mark

Hi Pinob,

A few cents to Mark comment.

You need to enable the https connection as Mark said, you have the next examples, you can enable it in ABAP or Java depending of your PI installation:

ABAP stack.

Java stack.

The https should to use a different port and this can be problematic in your MZ or DMZ zone.

Regards.
