Chapter 11. Configuring Smart Router for TLS support

Prerequisites

• KIE Server is installed on each node of a Red Hat JBoss EAP 7.4 cluster.
• Smart Router is installed and configured. For more information, see Installing and configuring Red Hat Process Automation Manager in a Red Hat JBoss EAP clustered environment.

• To start Smart Router with TLS support and HTTPS enabled as well as allowing HTTP connections, enter the following command:

  java  -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore = <KEYSTORE_PATH>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore.password = <KEYSTORE_PASSWORD>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore.keyalias = <KEYSTORE_ALIAS>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.port = <HTTPS_PORT>
        -jar rhpam-7.13.5-smart-router.jar

  In this example, replace the following variables:

• <KEYSTORE_PATH>: The path where the keystore will be stored.
• <KEYSTORE_PASSWORD>: The keystore password.
• <KEYSTORE_ALIAS>: The alias name used to store the certificate.
• <HTTPS_PORT>: The HTTPS port. The default HTTPS port is 9443.

• To start Smart Router with TLS support and HTTPS enabled and with HTTP connections disabled, enter the following command:

  java  -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore = <KEYSTORE_PATH>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore.password = <KEYSTORE_PASSWORD>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.keystore.keyalias = <KEYSTORE_ALIAS>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.tls.port = <HTTPS_PORT>
        -Dorg.kie.server.router.port=0
        -jar rhpam-7.13.5-smart-router.jar

  Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  When the org.kie.server.router.port system property is set to 0, then the HTTP listener is not registered. If TLS is configured and the HTTP listener is not registered, then Smart Router listens only on the HTTPS port.

  Note

  If TLS is not configured and you disable HTTP by setting org.kie.server.router.port to 0, then an error occurs and Smart Router stops.
