Java Server

Authentication (Beta)


Contents / Buttons

The Authentication page is used to choose a key/certificate chain pair as the default for your server. Click on the key name to see the certificate associated with it, and click on the list of certificates under the key name to browse backwards through the associated certificate chain, starting with the current certificate (Certificate 1).

To choose a key as the default, click on the key name (or a certificate name associated with that key). Then click on "Save", and that key will be saved as the default. This means that the server will use the chosen key and present the associated certificates when connecting to a client using a secure socket, giving the client the chance to accept or reject the connection.

If there are no keys shown, it means that no keystore has been created for the server. Use the bin/authstore utility in the server root directory to create and manage keys.
