Integration settings

Integration is configured in the process of creating a service processing module in BILLmanager.

To create a service processing module, enter Integration → Processing modules → click Add. The processing module adding wizard consists of the following steps:

  1. Product type: select "SSL certificates".
  2. Processing module: select "GlobalSign".
  3. Configuring integration. Specify the data for integration:
    1. Username — user in GlobalSign system.
    2. Password — access password to system API.
    3. Demo — you can use demo access to test ordering.
    4. IP address — IP address to be used to send API requests.
  4. Parameters of the service processing module. Configure internal (within BILLmanager) parameters of the service processing module:
    1. Name — specify the name of the processing module to be displayed in the BILLmanager interface.
    2. Department — select the department to which tasks from the processing module will be assigned;
    3. Sort — specify the processing module’s priority. If more than one processing module is connected to a tariff plan, the processing module with the lowest priority is selected first when creating the service.
    4. Processing module minimal balance — specify the minimum amount on the personal account in the system to purchase services. For more information, see Processing Module Balance.

Check connection

On the last step of the Setup Wizard, BILLmanager tries to connect to the Certification Authority with the specified parameters. If the operation failed with the error  message: "Cannot connect to the processing module", perform the following steps: 

  • make sure the connection parameters are correct; 
  • check that the URL-address of the Certification Authority is accessible from the server with BILLmanager;
  • make sure that  API calls can be executed from the BILLmanager IP address in the Certification Authority Client area.

Account balance 

The module can send the current account balance from the Certification Authority side. A BILLmanager administrator can see the current balance information on the billing platform Dashboard.

Additional UC SANs domains

GlobalSign's Multi-Domain SSL Certificates utilize alternate name (SAN) fields to protect up to 100 different domain names, subdomains, and public IP addresses. Only one such certificate and one IP address are required. GlobalSign includes SAN OWA, Mail and Autodiscover for free in all of its SSL certificates.

The module supports WWW, OWA, Mail and Autodiscover subdomains in the order. To include subdomains in your SSL certificate order, include an addon with the "Additional domains" type to the tariff content.

To configure support for UC SANs subdomains:

  1. Enter Products → Tariff plans → select a tariff plan → press Config.
  2. Click Add.
  3. Fill in the resource creation form. In the Type field, select "Additional UC SANs domains".
  4. Click Ok.

Example:

When ordering an SSL Certificate for a domain example.com with subdomains www.example.com and test.example.com:

  • the subdomain www.example.com will be considered in the "Additional UC SANs Domains" and its cost will be calculated at the price of this addon;
  • the subdomain test.example.com will be considered in "Additional Domains" and its cost will be calculated at the price of this addon.

Logging

The log of the billing platform's interaction with GlobalSign is written to the /usr/local/mgr5/var/pmglobalsign.log file.

To configure the extended display of information in the log, add the line "pmglobalsign.* 9" to the /usr/local/mgr5/etc/debug.conf file.
