Parameter
ssl/ssl_lib
Short text
Filename for external SSL shared library
Parameter Description
With this parameter, the file name for the external SSL library can be explicitly configured. Here, only a SAPCRYPTOLIB can be loaded.
The SAPCRYPTOLIB contans cryptographic algorithms and is subject to export control of the German Federal Export Office. It must NOT be shipped on the installation CD.
After logon, most customers can download SAPCRYPTOLIB from SAP Service Marketplace themselves. After unpacking the downloaded CAR-archives, the relevant shared library is to be copied to each application server according to $(DIR_LIBRARY). It is not then necessary to set this profile parameter
Normally, the preset (compiled) path and file name should match. Since the names of the file ending and the prefixes of the names of shared library are platform-dependent, the preconfigured name is also platform-dependent.
