Defining Which Connections Will Use SSL

After you've defined the WebAccess Agent's certificate and key file (see Defining the Certificate File), you can configure which connections you want to use SSL.

  1. In ConsoleOne, if the WebAccess Agent object's property pages are not already displayed, right-click the WebAccess Agent object, then click Properties.

  2. Click GroupWise > Network Address to display the Network Address page.

  3. Configure the SSL settings for the following connections:

    HTTP: Select Enabled to enable the WebAccess Agent to use a secure connection when passing information to the WebAccess Agent Web console. The Web browser must also be enabled to use SSL; if it is not, a non-secure connection will be used.

    Client/Server: Select from the following options to configure the WebAccess Agent's use of secure connections to POAs:

    • Disabled: The WebAccess Agent will not support SSL connections. All connections will be non-SSL.
    • Enabled: The POA determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used.
    • Required: The WebAccess Agent will force SSL connections. Non-SSL connections will be denied.
