3.2.3 Using SSL
The InForm OS provides a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol for secure transfer of data
between the CLI client and system and is set with either of the following:
■ The TPDSOCKSSL environment variable.
■ The -sockssl global option.
3.2.3.1 Setting the TPDSOCKSSL Environment Variable on Solaris and Linux
 To set the TPDSOCKSSL environment variable in Solaris and Linux, see the following system
output example:
cli% clihelp –col <command>
No help for columns of command “<command>”.
NOTE: The InForm CLI uses port number 5783 for secure communications and port
5782 for unsecure communications. When the TPDSOCKSSL environment variable
or
-sockssl global option is set, the socket port defaults to 5783. If you wish to
set a different socket port, use the
-tpdportnum <port_number> global
option (see 3.2.4 Setting the CLI Client Network Port on page 3.8).
