Function documentation Security Settings for the Sender XI Adapter  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

If you have assigned the sender agreement a communication channel with adapter type XI on the Integration Server or the PCK, you can specify settings for message security.

During inbound message processing the security settings have the following effect: If the Message Security checkbox is selected in the assigned communication channel, a signed message is expected (address data and business data are signed). The signature of the sender is checked by using the values entered in the Keystore, Issuer, and Subject fields. This enables the sender to be authorized and the data integrity to be guaranteed (content of the message was not modified during processing).

Caution

Note that the message protocol XI 3.0 must be selected in the assigned communication channel.

Note

You can use the security settings for communication between two Integration Servers and for communication between an Integration Server and Partner Connectivity Kit.

Prerequisites

The Message Security checkbox is selected in the corresponding communication channel.
