Configuring SNC for Using the SAP Cryptographic Library Using SAPGENPSELocate this document in the navigation structure

Use the command line tool sapgenpse to configure SNC for server types that do not offer a such a tool, such as, SAProuter or the application servers previous to release 6.10.

Note

Although you can maintain the security information of the AS ABAP using other tools, we continue to use this server component for the examples in the following topics.

Procedure
  1. Install the SAP Cryptographic Library.

    For more information, see SAP Note 1848999 Information published on SAP site or Installing the SAP Cryptographic Library on an Arbitrary Server.

  2. Create the PSE.

    For more information, see Creating a PSE for the Server Using SAPGENPSE.

    Note

    If you are using a single PSE for all server components, then you can:

    • Copy an existing PSE from the file system to use as the PSE for SNC.

    • Copy the PSE you create on this server to the other server components to use as the SNC PSE.

    If the component has several hosts, you can create a single PSE on one host and copy it to the other hosts.

  3. Create credentials for the server.

    For more information, see Creating a PSE for the Server Using SAPGENPSE.

    If you are using individual PSEs, then exchange the security information between the server and its communication partners.

    For more information, see Exchanging Public-Key Certificates.

  4. Perform any connection or server-specific SNC configurations and activate SNC.

    For more information, see Connection-Specific Configurations.

    The individual steps are described in the topics that follow. Additional functions that you can perform using the configuration tool sapgenpse are also described, which include:
