How do I use HTTPS with iMQ 2.0?
Our business requirement mandates that we have to use tunneling in a SECURE way, i.e. we have to use HTTPS tunneling.
Certainly this requires JMQ client code to open SSL socket instead of plain socket and also requires Web server to be configured and provides some management function to deal with
I like to believe that we are not the only one asking such a feature. Is it doable with JMQ? Is this in the work?
Deploying the JMQ2.0 HTTP Tunneling servlet on an https url will enable a
secure connection from the client to the webserver. However, the tunneling
servlet connection to the broker in JMQ2.0 is via a regular TCP connection and
not via SSL.
In our next major release we are adding the feature that provides a secure
connection right from the client through the tunneling servlet (https) and on
to the broker via SSL.
We will (soon) have a beta version available.
