Creating Credentials for the SAP Web Dispatcher 
The SAP Web Dispatcher must have active credentials at runtime to be able to access its PSEs. Therefore, to produce active credentials, use the configuration tool's command seclogin to "open" each PSE.
The credentials are located in the file cred_v2 in the directory specified by the environment variable SECUDIR. Make sure that only the user under which the SAP Web Dispatcher runs has access to this file (including read access).
If the SAP Web Dispatcher is to pass the SSL connection to the AS ABAP, you do not need to perform these steps.
Prerequisites
The SAP Cryptographic Library is installed and the environment variable SECUDIR is set to the directory where the license ticket and PSEs are located.
You know the user that runs the SAP Web Dispatcher.
Procedure
Use the following command line to open each PSE and create credentials.
sapgenpse seclogin <additional options> -p <PSE_Name> -x <PIN> -O [<Windows_Domain>\]<user_ID>
The tables below show the options to use with the command line.

Example
The following command line opens the SAP Web Dispatcher's SSL server PSE that is located at C:\Program Files\SAP\SAPWebDisp\sec\SAPSSLS.pse and creates credentials for the user ABCadm. The environment variable SECUDIR is set to C:\Program Files\SAP\SAPWebDisp\sec. The PIN that protects the PSE is abcpin.
sapgenpse seclogin -p SAPSSLS.pse -x abcpin -O ABCadm
