Visimage3 Setup
After installing Visimage3, Fiserv Online Clients must also install stunnel which is used to encrypt all communication between Visimage3 and the host. A special Fiserv installation of stunnel can be downloaded here.
New Stunnel Certificates (May 2024)
Effective May 13, 2024, clients must install new certificate files which can be downloaded here. Follow these steps to install the certificates:
unzip the Stunnel_Certs_May_2024.zip file copy stunnel.pem and certs.pem to C:/Program Files/stunnel/config restart the stunnel service (or reboot your PC)
These certificates must be installed on all client PCs where Visiamge3 is installed. If you have a VM configured to execute Visimage3 tasks automatically, don't forget to install the new certificates on that system also.
Stunnel Configuration
Once stunnel has been installed you must edit the stunnel.conf file and modify the [VisImage Client] section. By default, the stunnel.conf file is located in C:\Program Files\stunnel.
Locate this section:
[VisImage Client] client = yes accept = 30501 connect = 172.21.1.40:30502
- Note that 172.21.1.40 is just a sample IP address, your specific address will be different.
- Change the connect IP address from 172.21.1.40 to the correct IP address of your UNIX host and save the file.
- It should not be necessary to modify the accept or connect ports.
- If you have already rebooted your PC since installing stunnel, stop and restart the stunnel service. Otherwise reboot.
Checking the Stunnel Restart
After restarting the service (or rebooting) verify that the stunnel.log file has been updated. Open the log file in Notepad and scroll to the end of the file. If you do not see new entries written showing that the service was restarted then there is an issue with the configuration file. Double check that the stunnel.conf file still exists and was not accidentally renamed while it was being edited.
Visimage3 Server Configuration
When creating a Visimage3 connection, use the following parameters:
| Option | Value |
| Host Address | 127.0.0.1 |
| Host Port | 30501 |
| Host Profile Name | uname!live or uname!eom |
- Where uname is the username assigned by Fiserv. For example, joverton.
- The username is always followed by either !live (for the live databases) or !eom for the end of month (report) databases.
