For information about SSL, refer to the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) chapter of
your Software Reference.

For this configuration to succeed your router must have PKI, ISAKMP, SSH and
SSL feature licences. If these licences are not already present on your router,
please contact your authorised distributor or reseller.
