SSF_LIBRARY_PATH

This parameter contains the complete path and file name of a library for secure store and forward (SSF) functions. The security product determines the name and the location of the library.

Environment Variable or Initialization File Entry:

Product 1: SSF_LIBRARY_PATH

Product 2: SSF2_LIBRARY_PATH

Product 3: SSF3_LIBRARY_PATH

Application Server Profile Parameter:

Product 1: ssf/ssfapi_lib

Product 2: ssf2/ssfapi_lib

Product 3: ssf3/ssfapi_lib

Short Description: Path and file name of the SSF library
Valid Releases: All
Default:

The default security provider is the SAP Cryptographic Library.

  • UNIX: libsapcrypto.<ext>

    <ext> is the appropriate platform-specific extension. Use .XXX to let the system automatically determine the correct extension.)

  • Windows: sapcrypto.dll

On the front ends, the system searches for the SAP Cryptographic Library in the directory where the executable program ssfrfc.exe is located. In a standard installation, this is the SAP GUI directory (for example, under Windows NT, the SAP GUI directory is C:\Program Files\sappc\sapgui).

On the application server, the default value of ssf/ssfapi_lib is empty, which means that the system searches for the SAP Cryptographic Library in the directory specified by the profile parameter DIR_LIBRARY.
