SSL

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol that provides communication security over internet.

For GlassFish v3 you will get a default SSL support. A self-signed certificate is stored in keystore.jks which is located in domain config directory.

asadmin> create-http-listener  --listeneraddress  0.0.0.0  --listenerport  9000  --default-virtual-server  --securityEnabled=true  SecureListener  --port  4848
