WMB Distinguished Name matching rules

We would like to use SSL mutual authentication on our broker environment. We are using a central (company) CA that both client and server has connection to. The client has a client certificate; the server a server certificate. Now we would like to specify DN matching rules (which is possible in WebSphere MQ) to specify that only the client with a certificate that maches our rules are allowed access to our https connection.

According to Rao Nanduri rnanduri@us.ibm.com:
The default trust manager used by JSSE does not provide any option to distinguish/verify the clients based on specific DN. The authentication will only validate if the certificate is present in the truststore.
Message Broker has an option like host name checking in HTTP nodes which does a check on the distinguished name and the URL, but that doesn't serve the purpose for you.
JSSE Development team indicated that you would need to write your own trustmanager to do the verification you need on the certificate.
Please refer to the below API documentation about trust manager:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/java7sdk/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.java.security.component.doc%2Fsecurity-component%2Fjsse2Docs%2Fx509trustmanager.html

I would prefer not to write our own custom trust maanger but to just specify a DN matching rule.

    RFE Review. Apologies for the length of time this RFE has been in the status of Under Consideration. We agree with the enhancement request idea that the ability to apply DN matching rules would bring improvement to the product. Status of the RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
