Testing TLS in an i2 Analyze deployment

To ensure that a deployment allows only connections that use TLS, you can access it from a client workstation.

• The certificate that the client receives from Liberty server must be trusted on the client workstation. For more information, see Installing the certificate on client workstations.

• Ensure that i2 Analyze is started.

• Make a note of the URI for connections. When you start i2 Analyze, the URI that can be used to connect is displayed in the console. For example:

  Web application available (default_host): https://host_name:9445/opal

  Note: You cannot connect by using the HTTP protocol http://host_name/opal.

To use Analyst's Notebook to connect, you must:

• Install i2 Analyze support in Analyst's Notebook. For more information, see Installing i2 Analyst's Notebook.

• Connect to the deployment. For more information, see Working with i2 Analyze.

To use a web client to connect, you must:

• Ensure that you have the correct license agreements in place to use the i2 Investigate or the i2 Notebook web client.

• Open a web browser, and navigate to https://host_name/opal. The web client displays a login dialog.

• Enter the name and password of a user who is registered in the application server.

  If that user has permission to use the i2 Notebook web client, you see that application's user interface. If they do not have permission, you see the i2 Investigate web client user interface instead.
