both Hub Operator and internal partner if they do not delegate the task of
configuring and monitoring the WebSphere Partner Gateway system to some
internal IT group or a third-party company.
External Partner
This is the partner with which the internal partner communicates. There can be
multiple partners of this type. If the partner has its own implementation of
WebSphere Partner Gateway, then it becomes the internal partner on its own
system and a external partner on this one.
Each of these profiles has at least one user ID. As mentioned above, Hub Operator
profile is the hubadmin super-user of the system. The other two profiles will each
have an admin user assigned to them upon initial creation. These users, in turn,
can create other users with equal or less abilities. Each of these admin users has
certain configuration abilities. For example, the hubadmin user can create any
object on the system such as the internal partner or load system-wide security
certificates. The internal partner role can create participants or connections. The
external partner role is the most limited in scope and can view its own documents
and configure the local destinations to which the internal partner has to deliver
documents.
