Configuring SSL Support

When using an "https" URL, CXF will, by default, use the certs and keystores that are part of the JDK. For many HTTPs applications, that is enough and no configuration is necessary. However, when using custom client certificates or self signed server certificates or similar, you may need to specifically configure in the keystores and trust managers and such to establish the SSL connection.

To configure your client to use SSL, you'll need to add an <http:conduit> definition to your XML configuration file. See the Configuration guide to learn how to supply your own XML configuration file to CXF. If you are already using Spring, this can be added to your existing beans definitions.
