# IBM MQ Connection Details

To establish the connection successfully, you must configure the IBM MQ instance.

The IBM MQ Connection dialog box contains the following fields:
Field | Description
--- | ---
Connection Name | Enter the name of the connection. This is only a label and does not reflect the name of the server.
Description | Enter a brief description.
Connection type | Select any one of the following types of MQ Connection bindings. Remote: For remote connection CCDT: For Client Channel Definition Table connection
CCDT URL Type | When using the Client Channel Definition Table, enter the URL of the CCDT file that is exported by the server to which you are trying to connect. This file is located in the queue manager home directory in the `@ipcc/AMQCLCHL.TAB` file. Refer to this file from this location or copy it to a location where it is accessible. This URL supports the HTTP and FTP protocols. Select any of the following types of CCDT URLs. CCDT-File: To select the CCDT file from local system CCDT-URL-Auth: To use the authenticated FTP or HTTP connection for the CCDT file CCDT-URL-NonAuth: To use the unauthenticated FTP or HTTP connection for the CCDT file Note: For enhanced security of the FTP or HTTP connections, do not provide credentials in CCDT URL; instead, provide the credentials in the CCDT URL User Name and CCDT URL Password fields.
CCDT File | Select the `AMQCLCHL.TAB` file from its location. It accepts CCDT file in .tab, .TAB, or .json, .JSON format.
CCDT URL | Enter the URL for the CCDT file in FTP or HTTP format. Note: For security purposes, do not provide server credentials in CCDT URL.
CCDT URL User Name | The username of the user for a secure FTP or HTTP connection.
CCDT URL Password | The password is associated with the CCDT URL username for the FTP or HTTP connection.
Queue Manager Name | Enter the name of the queue manager as it appears in the start and stop commands. For example, the name of the queue manager can be QMA.
Host Name | Enter the hostname or an IP address of the machine on which the queue manager is running.
Port | Enter the port on which the queue manager TCP listener is listening. The default is 1414.
Server Connection Channel Name | Enter the name of the server connection channel.
User Name | Enter the username.
Password | Enter the password. This password is stored in an encrypted form.
Encryption Mode | Select any one of the following types of security: None: For a plain text connection. TLS-ServerAuth: For an encrypted connection where the identity of the server is authenticated. TLS-MutualAuth: For an encrypted connection where both the client and the server authenticate each other.
Keystore | Select the file containing the IBM kdb encoded keystore. This keystore is read into the configuration data of the applications and used at the runtime at the location where it is deployed. The deployment environment doesn't need to have access to this file. Note: Ensure that the keystore must contain the CA certificate for the server to connect in TLS-ServerAuth mode and an identity certificate for the client to connect in TLS-MutualAuth mode. The client certificate must be signed with a CA certificate, trusted by the server.
Keystore Stashfile | Select the stash file for the above keystore. The stash file is required so that the MQ client can open the password protected keystore. The stashfile is stored in the application configuration data.
CipherSpec | Enter the cipher specification for the server connection channel to which the application connects. You can get the cipher specification from the SSL tab of the server connection channel in MQExplorer or your MQ administrator.
Keystore Cert Label | Enter the certificate label of the client certificate to use for mutual authentication. If not specified the default certificate label will be used.
