Configuration Parameters

When you install CADP for Java, a properties file, named CADP_for_JAVA.properties file is provided. This file contains the parameters such as IP address, port, and protocol that determine how the CADP for Java Provider communicates with the Key Manager.

Important notes

1. The values in the properties file are case-sensitive- yes is not YES. tcp is not TCP. Follow the example of the default properties file.

2. Values can be commented-out using #. Notice that the properties file is delivered with Cipher_Spec commented out. Comments may be used to save settings when troubleshooting. For example, commonly used NAE_IP addresses could be stored like this:

           NAE_IP.1=10.0.0.2
           #NAE_IP.1=10.0.0.3
   

3. When editing parameters that use time values, the following abbreviations can be used:

   • ms: milliseconds. e.g. 4500ms for 4.5 seconds.

   • s: seconds. e.g. 30s for 30 seconds.

   • m: minutes. e.g. 5m for 5 minutes.

   • h: hours. e.g. 10h for 10 hours.

   • d: days. e.g. 2d for 2 days.

   If an abbreviation is not included, the default time unit is used. For most time-related values, the default is milliseconds.

The CADP for Java configuration parameters are classified into:

• Network Configuration Parameters

• Connection Parameters

• SSL Configuration Parameters

• Local Encryption Configuration Parameters

• Logging Parameters

• Miscellaneous Parameters
