Creating and Enabling a DCN Security Profile

An administrator must enable and configure the HTTPS port for DCN connections as part of a security profile so that developers can construct callouts from the EIS backend to send Unwired Server data change notification (DCN) requests.

  1. In Sybase Control Center for Unwired Platform, expand the server node in the corresponding cluster.
  2. In the left navigation pane, click Server Configuration.
  3. In the right administration pane, click General.
  4. Select SSL Configuration.
  5. Create a new security profile by entering these values in an empty row of the table.
    For self-signed certificates, the alias value is the same value set with the keytool -alias property.
    Column Name Value
    Security Profile MyDCNprofileName
    Certificate Alias aliasUsed
    Authentication
    • Choose intl for crypto algorithms with weaker key strengths that can be used internationally.
    • Choose domestic for stronger crypto algorithms that can be used in the United States.
    • Choose strong for the strongest crypto algorithms available. If you choose this option you must download and install a different JCE from Oracle. Otherwise, this profile cannot be used.
  6. On the General tab, click the Communication Ports.
  7. Enable the listener for DCN:
    • If you are using Unwired Platform with MBOs, in the SSL Profile column for the port number 8001, select Enabled, then choose dcn_profile.
    • If you are using Unwire Platform with OData and Gateway, enter a new port of 8004, select Enabled then choose MyDCNprofileName
  8. Restart the Unwired Server.
  9. Deploy a package that contains an application that uses DCN and test the DCN settings with it.
