Using your own custom wildcard certificates to secure Planning Analytics with Cognos Analytics Authentication
Posted: Thu Nov 30, 2017 4:18 pm
Hey Everyone,
Due to the fact there is 0 documentation from IBM for using your own custom domain wildcard certificates to secure your tm1 server and I just spent a while figuring this all out I was wondering if there was any interest in me putting together a walkthrough for all of the steps. I'm not sure if I was just slow on the uptake when it comes to this implementation and this was already just common knowledge because I wasn't able to find any solid resources online during my troubleshooting. It seems like most people stop at securing their dispatcher in IIS and don't bother using their own certificates for the IBM application layer or they use ThirdPartyCertificateTool, which doesn't work with wildcard certificates.
Cheers
