Configuring Trust Between SAP Web Dispatcher and ABAP ServersLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

For initial authentication at the ABAP front-end server and authentication for search requests at the ABAP back-end server (fact sheets), you can use different authentication methods, including X.509 certificates. If you want to use X.509 certificates, you must set up a trusted relationship between SAP Web Dispatcher and the Internet Communication Manager (ICM) of the relevant ABAP servers.

For more information about the steps that are required to configure the trusted relationship, see:
