Client-side endpoints (i.e. producers) can be configured with Basic Authentication credentials

Parameter name Type Default value Short description
username String n/a username for basic authentication
password String n/a password for basic authentication

Web Service transport-level encryption

Consumer

SSL support for IPF IHE consumers side must be configured in their deployment container. See e.g. SSL How-To for Tomcat 8.

Producer

TLS-related aspects of Web Service-based transactions are controlled by the following URI parameters:

Parameter name Type Default value Short description
secure boolean false enabled transport-level encryption for the given endpoint
sslContextParameters SslContextParameters n/a enables transport-level encryption and determines the SSL parameters that shall be applied to the endpoint
hostnameVerifier HostnameVerifier n/a strategy for host name verification

If secure is set to true but no sslContextParameters are provided, the Camel registry is looked up for a unique sslContextParameters bean instance to be used. If none is found, the matching CXF HttpConduit (see below, optionally controlled by the system environment) is instantiated. If more than one sslContextParameters bean instance is found, an exception is thrown.

SslContextParameters can be configured as shown in the example below. In this case, the WS producer URI requires the parameter sslContextParameters=#myContext.

     <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
            xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
            xmlns:camel="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring"
            xsi:schemaLocation="

     http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
     http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring
     http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd">
     
     ...
     
    <camel:sslContextParameters id="myContext">
        <camel:keyManagers keyPassword="changeit">
            <camel:keyStore type="JKS" password="changeit" resource="client.jks"/>
        </camel:keyManagers>
        <camel:trustManagers>
            <camel:keyStore type="JKS" password="changeit" resource="client.jks"/>
        </camel:trustManagers>
        <camel:clientParameters>
            <camel:cipherSuitesFilter>
                <camel:include>.*_EXPORT_.*</camel:include>
                <camel:include>.*_EXPORT1024_.*</camel:include>
                <camel:include>.*_WITH_DES_.*</camel:include>
                <camel:include>.*_WITH_NULL_.*</camel:include>
                <camel:exclude>.*_DH_anon_.*</camel:exclude>
            </camel:cipherSuitesFilter>
        </camel:clientParameters>
    </camel:sslContextParameters>    
     
 ```

If [sslContextParameters][SslContextParameters] are not provided, [CXF](https://cxf.apache.org)'s HTTP client can be configured accordingly.
This is done within the String context as detailed in the
[CXF documentation](https://cxf.apache.org/docs/client-http-transport-including-ssl-support.html).

Example:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"

    <http:conduit name="*.http-conduit">

            <sec:Password>*****</sec:Password>
        </http:authorization>
    </http:conduit>
    ...
You can also just reuse the TLS information as indicated by the system environment (i.e. by setting `-Djavax.net.ssl.*` properties):

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xmlns:camel="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring"
       xmlns:http="http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration"
       xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring
http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd
http://cxf.apache.org/transports/http/configuration
http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/configuration/http-conf.xsd">

    <import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml" />
    <import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-extension-jaxws.xml" />
    <import resource="classpath:META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml" />

    <http:conduit name="*.http-conduit">
        <!-- TLS default configuration -->
        <http:tlsClientParameters useHttpsURLConnectionDefaultSslSocketFactory="true"/>
    </http:conduit>
    ...

```

This is also the default, if no HttpConduit was configured or the HttpConduit does not contain TLS Client Parameters although secure was set to true.
