Creating a client PSE in Trust Manager

To create a client PSE in Trust Manager, do the following:

  1. Start the Trust Manager.
  2. Select the PSE SSL Client (Standard) in the status section of the Trust Manager.
  3. Click Create.

  4. For the CN (Name) enter the fully qualified hostname of the SAP WEB AS system. All other entries must not be changed. The key length should be 1024.
  5. Save the settings.
  6. Double-click SSL Client (Standard) in the status section. The Own certificate in the Own Certificate section is shown.
  7. Click Create Certificate Request.

  8. The Certification Request is shown. Copy the request to the Clipboard.
  9. Certify the request with a CA.

    Note SAP offers a two-month test period for signed certificates in the SAP Service Marketplace at http://www.service.sap.com/ssltest.

  10. Request an SSL Server Test Certificate as shown in the following diagram (select the PKCS#7 chain format).

  11. Click Continue. The SSL Server Certificate is created.

  12. Copy the Certificate response to your client PSE.

The certificate is now trusted against a CA. The required steps are different for other CA’s. Contact the Trust Center for details. A certificate for the SSL Server PSE is also required.
