    Hi  jagatjyoti1,

     

    As you know configuring the SSL authentication provides enhanced login security while allowing users to access a higher performance connection.That is converting http to https requires SSL configuration over SDM web urls which can be achieved by following the below documentation links:

    How to Configure SSL Authentication - CA Service Management - 14.1 - CA Technologies Documentation 

    Configuring SSL for Tomcat with CA Service Desk Manager 

     

    Let me know if you have any more questions.

    I hope this helps!

     

    Regards

    Junaid

    HI,

    Assuming you have already configured your SSL as mentionned above and you want to force your users to go to https when they are reaching SDM using HTTP.

     

    in Tomcat:

    add the below to your $CA_ROOT \Service Desk\bopcfg\www\CATALINA_BASE\conf\web.xml before the end of the </web-app>

    <security-constraint>

       <web-resource-collection>

       <web-resource-name>Automatic SLL Forwarding</web-resource-name>

          <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>

       </web-resource-collection>

       <user-data-constraint>

          <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>

       </user-data-constraint>

    </security-constraint>

    In IIS:

    add the below to your web.config ( you will need to have the URL Rewrite module.)

    <rewrite>
       <rules>
          <rule name="Redirect to http" enabled="true" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
             <match url="*" negate="false" />
             <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
                <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" />
             </conditions>
             <action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Found" />
          </rule>
       </rules>
    </rewrite>

     

    Hope this help

    /J
