Defining Security Requirements

The following security requirements can be set for a service/security node or an alias:

• Standard (default)

• SSL

If SSL is specified, then an HTTPS connection is required for this service. A call using an HTTP connection is answered with an error message.

Proceed as follows to define the security requirements for a service/service node:

1. In transaction SICF, call the required service or service node.

   Note

   If you define the logon order in a service node, the settings are passed on to all services under this node.

2. Choose Change.

3. Under Service Data/Security Requirements, select the Standard or SSL option.

4. Save your entry with Save.
