Changing the certificate keystore default password

Avaya 3100 Mobile Communicator applications use the information in the Gateway server

configuration (HTTPS certificate password field) to access the keystore used for client-

server communications (ssl-keystore). The password is only used within the Avaya 3100

Mobile Communicator Gateway.

The default password for the ssl-keystore is mobility. You can change the default ssl-

keystore password to increase security or if administrative access to the Avaya 3100 Mobile

Communicator Gateway is compromised.

Important:

Do not change the keystore password for administrative access (admin-ssl-keystore). This

keystore must always use the mobility password.

Prerequisites

• You must be logged into the server as superuser. For more information, see

Accessing

the server command line as superuser on page 115.

• You must be logged in to the Avaya 3100 Mobile Communicator Web Administration

Console as administrator. For more information on logging in as an administrator, see

Logging on to the Avaya 3100 Mobile Communicator Web Administration Console as an

administrator on page 16.

1. At the command line, execute the following commands:

cd /opt/mobilitygw-2.1/server/default/data

/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_03/bin/keytool -storepasswd -new <newpw>

-storepass <oldpw> -keystore /opt/MobilityGateway/server/

default/data/ssl-keystore
