Allows This region allows you to secure the JMX ports for RTView processes, which would then require using a specific username/password to gain access. If this option is enabled, you must specify the path to the password file containing all valid user names and passwords.

...

The RTView Manager application also connects to the JMX Ports of the RTVeiw processes in order to monitor them. If you are using the RTView Manager in RTViewCentral and the JMX ports have been secured with username and password, you must fill in the Username and Password Credentials that the RTView Manager should use to connect. If you are using the RTView Manager in a deliverable other than RTViewCentral, you will need to fill in the user name and password in the connection to this RTViewDataServer in the RTView Manager Configuration Application.

The Security page tab has the following fields:

SSL Credentials

Truststore

Enter the directory path to the truststore file and click the associated SET PASSWORD button to define the password required to access the file.

Keystore

Enter the directory path to the keystore file and click the associated SET PASSWORD button to define the password required to access the file.

Secure with SSL

Enabling this toggle locks the JMX ports for the RTView processes (DataServer and Historian, for example). You must specify the path to the Truststore and Keystore files (and their associated passwords) in the SSL Credentials region (see above) when selecting this toggle.

This option also locks the JMX ports used when the start_server, stop_server, and status_server scripts are run. Though not required, you can enter the path to the truststore and keystore files in the associated Client Truststore and Client Keystore fields (as well as their passwords) to avoid having to enter the keystore and truststore names and passwords on the command line when using the start_server, stop_server, and status_server scripts.

SSL Credentials for RTView Scripts

The start_server, stop_server, and status_server scripts connect to the RTView processes using JMX. You can either save the Client Truststore and Client Keystore properties here for use by the scripts or you can pass them in on the command line each time you execute those scripts.
For example, start_server.sh -sslkeystore:clientkeystore.jks -sslkeystorepass:clientkeystorepass -ssltruststore:clienttruststore.jks -ssltruststorepass:clienttruststorepass.
