Appendix B. Updating Certificates

TIBCO MFT Internet Server uses two types of certificates. You can use and update the certificates within TIBCO MFT Command Center.

  • HTTPS certificate: used for communicating with TIBCO MFT Internet Server through HTTPS (HTTP over SSL).
  • Applet certificate: used to sign the JAVA applets used by TIBCO MFT Internet Server to transfer files.
Note: It is best to create a new keystore for each type of certificate. Most certificate authorities (CA) require separate certificates for HTTPS and Applet signing. You must purchase the correct certificates.
