void	setTrustedCaDb(String certificateDb) Configure the set of trusted CA certificates used by this node to verify peers.

Method Detail

init

void init(SslDomain.Mode mode)

Initialize the ssl domain object. An SSL object be either an SSL server or an SSL client. It cannot be both. Those transports that will be used to accept incoming connection requests must be configured as an SSL server. Those transports that will be used to initiate outbound connections must be configured as an SSL client.

getMode

SslDomain.Mode getMode()

setCredentials

void setCredentials(String certificateFile,
                    String privateKeyFile,
                    String password)

Set the certificate that identifies the local node to the remote. This certificate establishes the identity for the local node. It will be sent to the remote if the remote needs to verify the identity of this node. This may be used for both SSL servers and SSL clients (if client authentication is required by the server).

Parameters:

certificateFile - path to file/database containing the identifying certificate.

privateKeyFile - path to file/database containing the private key used to sign the certificate

password - the password used to sign the key, else null if key is not protected.

getPrivateKeyFile

String getPrivateKeyFile()

getPrivateKeyPassword

String getPrivateKeyPassword()

getCertificateFile

String getCertificateFile()

setTrustedCaDb

void setTrustedCaDb(String certificateDb)

Configure the set of trusted CA certificates used by this node to verify peers. If the local SSL client/server needs to verify the identity of the remote, it must validate the signature of the remote's certificate. This function sets the database of trusted CAs that will be used to verify the signature of the remote's certificate.

Parameters:

certificateDb - database of trusted CAs, used to authenticate the peer.

getTrustedCaDb

String getTrustedCaDb()

setPeerAuthentication

void setPeerAuthentication(SslDomain.VerifyMode mode)

Configure the level of verification used on the peer certificate. This method controls how the peer's certificate is validated, if at all. By default, neither servers nor clients attempt to verify their peers (SslDomain.VerifyMode.ANONYMOUS_PEER). Once certificates and trusted CAs are configured, peer verification can be enabled. In order to verify a peer, a trusted CA must be configured. See setTrustedCaDb(String).

Parameters:

mode - the level of validation to apply to the peer

getPeerAuthentication

SslDomain.VerifyMode getPeerAuthentication()

allowUnsecuredClient

void allowUnsecuredClient(boolean allowUnsecured)

Permit a server to accept connection requests from non-SSL clients. This configures the server to "sniff" the incoming client data stream, and dynamically determine whether SSL/TLS is being used. This option is disabled by default: only clients using SSL/TLS are accepted.

allowUnsecuredClient

boolean allowUnsecuredClient()
