The nonsecure mode can be either permanent or for the current session only. You can switch to the nonsecure mode even if this preference is set to false. The Permanent and Sessions options that are available in Packaging Utility do not have a preference key.
In Packaging Utility, you have the Permanent and Sessions options. When Permanent is checked, Nonsecure SSL Mode remains enabled the next time you start Installation Manager. When the Session option is checked, Nonsecure SSL Mode is enabled only for this session.
