To enable the JDBC encryption option for IBM i servers, you must configure IBM i servers and clients to use a TLS certificate for encrypted communication.
Configuring Connect CDC to encrypt data when processing from a remote system is a multi-step process:
-
Install required software/products on the IBM i source system as described under the prerequisites section.
-
Creating a Digital Certificate and Certificate Store on the IBM i system.
-
Adding the Certificate to the truststore on the Connect CDC host system.
-
Changing the IBM i JDBC properties to be “secure”.
