Tomcat configuration is stored in Tomcat_HOME/conf/server.xml. The following code shows an example Connector configuration:

Javascript

    <Connector port="8443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
               maxThreads="150" SSLEnabled="true">
        <UpgradeProtocol className="org.apache.coyote.http2.Http2Protocol" />
        <SSLHostConfig>
            <Certificate certificateKeystoreFile=""
             certificateKeystoreType="PKCS11"
             certificateKeystoreProvider="SunPKCS11-Futurex"
             certificateKeyAlias="tomcatdemo1"
             certificateKeystorePassword="safest"
             type="EC" />
        </SSLHostConfig>
    </Connector>
