None. If
ssl_sert_file
is not set, then
ssl_pkey_pswd will be set to

Password to unlock the private key file.
ssl_front_end
lsd1 or
csname
None This key is invalid without a true value for the
use_comm_server key. This key identifies the server address
to be marshaled into the IOR. If the value
lsd1 is specified,
the LSD's address is marshaled into the IOR and the LSD
is assumed to be configured as an SSL server. One or
more Comm Servers must have a matching SSL server
configuration for the LSD to forward connections. If the
value
csname is specified, the Comm Server's address is
marshaled into the IOR.
csname=prefixNCletter is the
standard Comm Server entity name form, where
prefix is
the installation prefix and
letter is a letter that must be in
contiguous ascending order. NOTE: If the
ssl_front_end key
is specified without the
use_comm_server key, the
configuration event ZDOM-SSLIOP-CONFIG-ERR will
occur and the application will terminate.
IIOP Protocol
Enable the IIOP protocol when you want TCP/IP to be used as the transport mechanism for requests and responses. A server in which the IIOP
protocol is used can be configured as a direct server or an indirect server. A direct server listens directly to the TCP/IP port. An indirect server
listens to the port by means of the Comm Server, which forwards requests to the actual server process.
To configure a direct server, define the server profile as follows:
1. Set
use_comm_server to false.
2. Specify the server's host name and port number in the program profile. Give the host name as either an IP address in dot decimal form or
as a name that can be resolved to an IP address.
3. Specify the port number—the TCP/IP port number on which the server process listens for requests. The value zero causes the ORB
component to automatically choose a port number.
4. (Optional) Specify the TCP process. The TCP process must be one that can service requests directed to the host name's IP address.
To configure an indirect server, define the server profile as follows:
1. Set
use_comm_server to true.
2. Use the
Pathsend protocol or the file system protocol.
The following table shows the keys and values that are associated with the IIOP protocol (tcp_server):

This key is invalid without a true value for the use_comm_server key. This key identifies the
server address to be marshaled into the IOR.
csname must be the standard Comm Server entity name form, for example ZNCA, where the first letter is the installation prefix and the last letter
must be in contiguous ascending order.
If the value lsd1 is specified, the LSD's address is marshaled into the IOR and the LSD is assumed to be configured as an SSL server. One or
more Comm Servers must have a matching SSL server configuration for the LSD to forward connections.
If the value csname is specified, the Comm Server's address is marshaled into the IOR. The Comm Server can be a:
