Security Settings

Field	Value
Trust Model	Direct or Hierarchical. If the Direct Trust model is used, this means that the adapter does no certificate trust worthiness check. The certificate is trusted directly. If the Hierarchical model is used, this means that the adapter checks for the trust worthiness of the certificate and verifies it against the certifying authority’s certificate (CA certificate).
Current Certificate for Signing	Choose the algorithm SHA1 or MD5 from the dropdown box. The Keystore Entry must have the name of your private key.
Partner Certificate for Signing	In case of Direct Trust Model, enter values for the Keystore View name and Keystore Entry here. The Keystore Entry of the partner must correspond to the signing certificate name of the partner. In case of the Hierarchical Trust Model, enter the values of the subject and issuer name of the signing certificate name of the partner. Also enter the Certification Authority key store view name, which contains the reference to the certificate of the Certification Authority.
