MettleCI - Firewall Rules & Security

NOTE

  • MettleCI Workbench uses your existing Information Server authentication scheme so users login to Workbench using their DataStage Designer credentials.

  • If you wish to configure MettleCI to use HTTPS you can either use the self-signed certificate generated during the MettleCI Workbench installation, or provide one yourself.  We will work with you to describe how your certificate renewal process will work with MettleCI's components.  See IBM's page on Storing certificates for client applications.
