Re: Using TLS1.2 with IBMi custom agent software

[Brad Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

The SSL APIs used in the agent should handle all that.  If you have TLS set
up properly and your QSSL* system values set up right and are on V7R3 or
above, the only thing you may need to do is import the CA chain used by the
certificate on the server.
