Configuration – Network > SSL
The secure socket layer (SSL) that provides a secure transport mechanism is supported by
Digi’s TransPort routers. The configuration of the client-side and server are described in the
following pages.
Configuration – Network > SSL > SSL Clients
Some sites require client side authentication when connecting to them. The router’s SSL
client handles the authentication for SSL connections using certificates signed by a
Certificate Authority (CA). For more information regarding certificates and certificate
requests, refer to the certificates page Administration – X.509 Certificate Management
> Certificate Authorities (CAs).
Configuring the SSL clients is handled by a table having the columns and parameters listed
below:
