Phase 1: Prerequisites and discovery
- Identify all required trading partners and their specific AS2 identifiers.
- Agree on key attributes: Encryption Algorithm (e.g., AES-256), MIC Hash (SHA-256), and Synchronous/Asynchronous MDN preference.
- Exchange public signing certificates and agree on HTTPS endpoint URLs.
Phase 2: Configuration and testing
This phase leans on our AS2 Certificate Validator and MDN Decoder. Configure the communication link, exchange test documents, and verify signature validation.
Pro Tip: Use the AS2 Configuration Generator to ensure your parameters match your partner's requirements exactly.
Phase 3: Go-live and auditing
Once tests pass, finalize the configuration. Ensure your logging captures the MIC verification result for every successful interchange to satisfy compliance audits.
