oracle weblogic server supports the ssl protocol to enable secure
communication between the applications that are the connected through
the web.By default weblogic server is configured for one way ssl
authentication where the manged server is enabled with a digital
certificate.using the administration console you can configure oracle
weblogic server for two way ssl authentication where the client and
server are both enabled with the digital certificates to securely
establish their identity
to use ssl you would require a private key a digital
certificate containing the matching public key ,and a certificate
signed by at least one of trusted CA to verify the data embedded in the
digital certificate .For intermediate authorities you may need to
install the root trusted ca certificate
ssl server authentication allows a user to confirm a
servers identity, through an ssl enabled client software using standard
techniques of public key cryptography, to verify that a servers
certificate and public id are valid and have bees issued by a CA that is
listed in the clients list of trusted ca's .For example when sending a
credit card ,you may want to check the receiving servers identity
ssl client
authentication allows a server to confirm a users identity to verify
that a clients certificate and public id are valid and have bees issues
by a ca that is listed in the servers list of trusted CAs.For example,If
banks sends the account information to a customer this check may be
essential
the ssl protocol includes to sub protocols
the ssl record protocol which defines the format that is used to transmit data
ssl
handshake protocol to exchange a series of messages between an ssl
enabled server and ssl enabled client when the ssl connection is
established
