Getting Started
SSL Connection Settings
The optional SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol enables authenticated and
encrypted communication between clients and servers.
Before anyone can connect to a server the system administrator must make available a
copy of the root certificate used to sign the server’s identity certificate and the number
of the telnet port the server is listening on (the default for secure telnet is 992).
Additionally the system administrator may issue each user or terminal with their own
password protected client certificate.
To make an SSL connection:
1. Select the SSL option in the Connection Wizard Host Information dialog box, or
from the New Connection dialog Type list box when running TeemTalk.
2. Display the Telnet Options dialog box and change the port to the number
specified by the system administrator then click OK.
3. Click the Advanced or Configure button to display the SSL Connection dialog
box.
4. If you have not already installed the root certificate you will have been given to
verify the server you are going to connect to, click Add under Root Certificates
and choose the file containing the certificate. This will import the certificate and
add its name to the list.
5. If the server you are going to connect to requires you to have a client certificate,
choose the relevant certificate from the Client Certificate drop down list.
6. If you have not already installed your client certificate, click Add under Client
Certificate and choose the file containing the certificate. This will import the
certificate and add its name to the list.
