Transport

Specify whether the client processes connect to the server using one of the server-connected transports.

You can choose to use either SSL, TCP/IP, or Both as the outbound transport that a server supports. If you specify TCP/IP, the server supports only TCP/IP and cannot initiate SSL connections with downstream servers. If you specify SSL-supported, this server can initiate either TCP/IP or SSL connections. If you specify SSL-required, this server must use SSL to initiate connections to downstream servers. When you do specify SSL, decide which set of SSL configuration settings you want to use for the outbound configuration.

This decision determines which keyfile and trustfile to use for outbound connections to downstream servers. Consider the following options:

TCP/IP

If you select this option, the server opens TCP/IP connections with downstream servers only.

SSL-required

If you select this option, the server opens SSL connections with downstream servers.

SSL-supported

If you select this option, the server opens SSL connections with any downstream server that supports them and opens TCP/IP connections with any downstream servers that do not support SSL.

Default:	SSL-supported
Range:	TCP/IP, SSL-required, SSL-supported

SSL settings

Specify a list of predefined SSL settings for outbound connections. These settings are configured at the SSL Configuration Repertoires panel. To access the panel...

1. Click Security > SSL certificate and key management.

2. Under Configuration settings, click Manage endpoint security configurations and trust zones.

3. Expand Outbound > outbound_configuration_name.

4. Under Related items, click SSL configurations.

Data type:	String
Range:	Any SSL settings that are configured in the SSL Configuration Repertoires panel

This field is available only if a V6.0.x server exists in your environment.

SSL enabled

Specify whether secure socket communication is enabled to the server.

Centrally managed

Specify that the selection of an SSL configuration is based upon the outbound topology view for the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) platform.

Centrally managed configurations support one location to maintain SSL configurations rather than spreading them across the configuration documents.

Default:

Enabled

Use specific SSL alias

Specify the SSL configuration alias to use for outbound SSL communications.

This option overrides the centrally managed configuration for the JNDI (LDAP) protocol.
