Setting Up HTTPS Connections
HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) connections can be established between P9000 Replication Manager and
the Business Continuity Manager agent to improve security. To establish HTTPS connections between
P9000 Replication Manager and the Business Continuity Manager agent, IBM HTTP Server is
required as a reverse proxy server. A reverse proxy server uses HTTPS to receive requests from
P9000 Replication Manager, and then uses HTTP to send those requests to the Business Continuity
Manager agent, which is the origin server. In addition, basic access authentication can be used
to authorize P9000 Replication Manager.
A configuration example for HTTPS connections between P9000 Replication Manager and IBM
HTTP Server follows.
