During installation
and configuration of SAS 9.4, the SAS Deployment Wizard enables you
to configure the SAS Web Server to use HTTPS and Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) certificates automatically. Verify that the Certificate Authority
certificate is available to the trust store for the browser and Java
clients such as SAS Workflow Studio and SAS Management Console. For
more information, see the Instructions.html file in the directory
\SASConfigDir\Lev1\Documents
and
SAS Intelligence Platform: Middle-Tier Administration Guide for information about validating your environment.
If you did not use the
SAS Deployment Wizard to configure the SAS Web Server to use HTTPS
and SSL certificates, you can configure it manually.
For more information,
see Configuring SAS Web Server Manually for HTTPS in SAS Intelligence Platform: Middle-Tier Administration Guide.
The communication path
between SAS Web Server and SAS Web Application Server uses HTTP by
default. If you configured the SAS Web Server to use HTTPS by using
the SAS Deployment Wizard, you must complete additional steps in order
to use HTTPS between SAS Web Server and SAS Web Application Server.
For more information,
see Configuring SAS Web Application Server to Use HTTPS in SAS Intelligence Platform: Middle-Tier Administration Guide. If you configure
the SAS Web Application Server to use HTTPS, see Configure Your Deployment for HTTPS for additional
instructions.
