Prerequisites for Creating a Connection

Satisfy the following prerequisites specific to your environment to create a connection with the RosettaNet Adapter.

This information is required to create a RosettaNet Adapter connection on the Connections page. See Configure Connection Properties and Configure Connection Security.

Trading Partner Endpoint Prerequisites

  • Ensure that the trading partner's RosettaNet endpoint to use is reachable from Oracle Integration.
  • Know the URL of the trading partner endpoint at which to receive RosettaNet messages.

Certificate and Private Key Prerequisites

Ensure that the necessary certificates and private keys used for encryption, decryption, signature generation, and signature verification are uploaded. See Upload a Certificate to Connect with External Services.

RosettaNet Advanced Policy Prerequisites

To use the RosettaNet Advanced Policy, know the following information based on what you plan to configure on the Connections page:
  • RosettaNet decryption private key alias and key password
  • Inbound RosettaNet sign verify certificate alias
  • RosettaNet endpoint username and password
  • RosettaNet signature private key alias and password
  • Outbound RosettaNet encrypt certificate alias

RosettaNet Basic Policy Prerequisites

To use the RosettaNet Basic Policy, know the following information based on what you plan to configure on the Connections page:
  • HTTP authentication username and password
  • Private key alias and password
  • Partner certificate alias

Two-Way SSL Connections in the Outbound Direction Prerequisites

If you want to use two-way SSL connections in the outbound direction, perform the following steps.

Note:

Two-way SSL connections in the inbound (trigger) direction are not supported.
  1. Generate a client certificate. The tasks are similar to what you perform for the REST Adapter or SOAP Adapter, except that the transport layer security (TLS) version is not needed. For an overview, see Create a Keystore File for a Two-Way, SSL-Based Integration in Using the REST Adapter with Oracle Integration 3.
  2. Upload the certificate as an X.509 Identity. See Upload a Certificate to Connect with External Services.
  3. Remember the key alias you use.
  4. Configure a two-way SSL connection. See Configure Connection Properties.

    The settings you configure on the Connections page are used at runtime by the RosettaNet Adapter to perform SSL client authentication for a RosettaNet inbound business message.
