Configure Secure Services with TIBCO API Exchange Gateway

Access secure web services using TIBCO API Exchange Gateway.

TIBCO API Exchange Gateway provides the HTTPs transport for the secure communication with the web services at the back end. You can access the target services with or without client authentication.

The backend services may or may not require X.509 client authentication. The Is Anonymous flag for a target service determines if the client authentication is required or not. The client authentication, also known as mutual SSL authentication is required if the Is Anonymous flag is set to false. If the Is Anonymous flag is set to true, the service does not require the authentication of client.

Note: When the authentication policies are enforced on a SSL enabled target service, make sure to set the class path in the ASG_HOME/bin/asg-engine.tra file. The class path must include the TIBCO_HOME/tools/lib directory, and can be set using the following variable: tibco.env.CUSTOM_EXT_PREPEND_CP.
