Web services security property configuration settings

Use this page to configure additional security properties.

You can view a Web services security property configuration settings panel in several ways. Complete the following steps to view one of these administrative console pages:
  1. Click Security > Web services.
  2. Under Default generator bindings or Default consumer bindings, click Properties > New.

Property Name

[Version 5 and 6 only]

Specifies the name of the property.

Data type: String

Property Value

[Version 5 and 6 only]

Specifies the value for the property.

Data type: String
The following table lists the properties that you can configure by using the Web services security property panels.
Configuration panel name Property name Property value Description
JAAS configuration com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity. token.X509.issuerName Specify the SubjectDN or the IssuerDN of the issuer for the X.509 certificate. This property is used to specify the issuer of the certificate in the token consumer component.
JAAS configuration com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity. token.X509.issuerSerial Specify the serial number of the X.509 certificate. This property is used to specify the serial number of the certificate in the token consumer component.
Key information com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity. keyinfo.EncodingNS Specify the namespace Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for the qualified name (QName). This property is used to specify the namespace URI part of the QName that represents the encoding method.
Properties com.ibm.ws.wssecurity. handler.hardwareCacheEntryRefreshHours Specify a numeric value from 1 to 24 that represents the number of hours that a temporary key is valid. This property is used to specify the amount of time before a key is retranslated. Temporary keys outside the keystore typically expire in a short period of time, measured in days or hours. If the server is configured to use a hardware acceleration card, but not the hardware keystore, you can configure it to translate the temporary keys periodically before they expire. If this property is not set , a key will be retranslated after 8 hours. Setting this value to 0 disables retranslation.
Request generator and Response generator com.ibm.wsspi.wssecurity. timestamp.SOAPHeaderElement Specify 1 or true. This property is used with the Add nonce option to set the mustUnderstand flag in the deployment descriptor.
