1 -Using the public server that is provided by the KIELER project may introduce a significant latency to the layout process, depending on the size and structure of the models you are using and the type of internet connection you have. Another aspect is confidentiality. You may not want to send your models to a public server, even if the connection is being secured by HTTPS. For these reasons you may want to set up your own server that is providing layout in your internal network. In the following we will take a look at what it takes to set up the server in your environment and how you can configure it to your needs.

You can also define the port a variant is listening on and the HTTP context it is bound to. In the following example they are accepting requests from {{code language="none"}}0.0.0.0{{/code}}, meaning that they accept incoming requests from any client. The SOAP over HTTP variant is bound to port {{code language="none"}}8442{{/code}} and the context {{code language="none"}}layout{{/code}}. You cannot define a context for the jETI variant due to the proprietary nature of the transport protocol jETI uses.

67 67  If you decide to publish the SOAP over HTTPS variant you need a server certificate in order to secure the connection. While a certificate that has been officially signed by a Certificate Authority (CA) is preferable, the server provides a java key store containing a self signed certificate. It is located in the folder {{code language="none"}}server/kwebs/security/keystores{{/code}} beneath the root directory of your server installation, the name of the key store is {{code language="none"}}server.jks{{/code}}. Furthermore, due to the nature of the SSL-implementation of the java platform, the server provides the corresponding client trust store that clients can use to add the server certificate to the list of certificates the java runtime implicitly trusts ({{code language="none"}}client.jks{{/code}}). The server also contains a script ({{code language="none"}}GenerateCertsAndKeystores.sh{{/code}}) that allows you to generate these by yourself. You can find it in the folder {{code language="none"}}server/cmd{{/code}} beneath the root directory of your server installation. The script requires the presence of OpenSSL ([[http:~~/~~/www.openssl.org/>>url:http://www.openssl.org/||shape="rect"]]). While it is generally already installed on Linux platforms, for a Windows based server you need to download and install the OpenSSL toolkit ([[http:~~/~~/www.openssl.org/related/binaries.html>>url:http://www.openssl.org/related/binaries.html||shape="rect"]]).
