Re: Allow SSL for 5250

Yes they will. Remember not to make the same mistake I just made a few
days
ago. You must authorize all the host servers to the certificate as well as
the telnet server. Once you have that going then you can change the telnet
attributes to only listen on 992 if that's what you want.

Subject: Allow SSL for 5250

I'm planning the process of allowing SSL for 5250, and I'd really
appreciate
feedback to make sure I'm doing this correctly. I really, really need to
avoid breaking all of 5250.

My TELNET Properties show:
Socket layer support to be started with server:
Both secure and non-secure

DCM shows:
IBM i TCP/IP Telnet Server None assigned


First I'm going to assign my cert in DCM and bounce telnet. This will have
no apparent effect. Then in my ACS, I'll check the "Use SSL for
connection"
and my 5250 will be encrypted and show the closed lock. Existing 5250
sessions will continue to operate unencrypted with no disruption at all.

Is that about it?


TIA
