7.1 Procedure

  1. Navigate to the C:\NetIQ\Common\JRE\conf\security folder.

  2. Take a backup of the java.security file.

  3. Edit the java.security file by executing the following steps:

    1. Search for the List of providers and their preference orders string, comment all the existing providers, and then add the following entries:

      security.provider.1=BCFIPS
security.provider.2=BCJSSE
security.provider.3=SunJSSE
security.provider.4=SUN
security.provider.5=SunJCE

    2. Search for the ssl.KeyManagerFactory.algorithm=SunX509 string, comment it, and add:

      ssl.KeyManagerFactory.algorithm=PKIX

    3. Search for the jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms string add TLSv1, TLSv1.1 to the list.

      For example, jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 1024, \EC keySize < 224, 3DES_EDE_CBC, anon, NULL

    4. Search for the keystore.type string, comment it, and then add:

      keystore.type=bcfks

  4. Navigate to the C:\NetIQ\Common\JRE\lib\security folder.

  5. Take a backup of the cacerts file.

  6. To convert the keystore file from jks to bcfks, run the following command:

    keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore C:\NetIQ\IDM\FanoutAgent\config\keystore.jks -srcstorepass netiq123 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -destkeystore C:\NetIQ\IDM\FanoutAgent\config\keystore.jks -deststorepass netiq123 -deststoretype BCFKS -providerclass org.bouncycastle.jcajce.provider.BouncyCastleFipsProvider -providerpath $CLASSPATH

  7. Navigate to the C:\NetIQ\IDM\FanoutAgent\bin\ folder and update the following changes in the startAgent.bat file:

    "%JAVA%" --add-opens=java.base/sun.security.internal.spec=ALL-UNNAMED -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=C:\NetIQ\Common\JRE\lib\security\cacerts -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit -Dkeystore.type=BCFKS -Dorg.bouncycastle.fips.approved_only=true -Dorg.bouncycastle.rsa.allow_multi_use=true -cp %CLASSPATH% com.netiq.idm.fanoutagent.FanoutAgent !FILENAME! !SERVERONLY!.

  8. Start the Fanout Agent and check logs.
