15.3.1 Identity Server Keystores

Access Manager creates the following keystores for each Identity Server cluster configuration:

Signing: Contains the certificate that is used for signing the assertion or specific parts of the assertion.

Encryption: Contains the certificate that is used to encrypt specific fields or data in assertions.

SSL Connector: Contains the certificate that Identity Server uses for SSL connections. If multiple devices are installed on the same machine, Identity Server uses the COMMON_TOMCAT_CLUSTER keystore.

Provider Introductions SSL Connector: Contains the certificate that you configure when you set up Identity Server to provide introductions to service providers that are trusted members of a service domain. The subject name of this certificate needs to match the DNS name of the service domain.

Consumer Introductions SSL Connector: Contains the certificate that you configure when you set up Identity Server to consume authentications provided by other identity providers that are trusted members of a service domain. The subject name of this certificate needs to match the DNS name of the service domain.
