The OpenSSL-Toolkit is available for performing certain tasks when X.509 certificates are created, for example for
generating X.509 Certificate Signing Requests (CSR) and test certificates
displaying certificates in readable form
selecting a suitable cipher suite list specification
The OpenSSL-Toolkit was used for implementing the TLS functions.
As the OpenSSL-Toolkit offers far greater functionality than is required for FTP and TELNET, operation is simplified by using some SDF-P procedures which are contained in the LMS library SYSSPR.TCP-IP-AP.nnn.
These procedures are available in the following form:
As compiled procedures. This enables the procedures also to be used by users who only have SDF-P-BASYS, but not the chargeable subsystem SDF-P (SYSJ elements).
As J elements. The source text of the procedures is thus also available.
A description of the following procedures is provided below:
MAKE.CERT - Generating test certificates and CSRs (RSA or DSA, 2048/1024 bits)
- MAKE.SELF-SIGNED-CERT - Generating private key and related self-signed certificate
- EXPORT.FROM-PKCS12 - Export content of a PKCS#12/PFX file
SHOW.CERT - Showing X.509 certificates in plain text
SHOW.CIPHERLIST - Selecting a suitable cipher suite list specification
GEN.DHPARAM - Generating DH parameter set
