The Internet Agent can use SSL to enable secure SMTP, POP, IMAP, and HTTP connections. The following switches can be used to 1) specify the server certificate file, key file, and key file password required for SSL and 2) enable or disable SSL for SMTP, POP, IMAP, and HTTP connections. See Securing Internet Agent Connections Via SSL.
Specifies the server certificate file to use. The file must be in Base64/PEM or PFX format. If the file is not in the same directory as the Internet Agent program, specify the full path.
Specifies the private key file to use. The key file is required if the certificate file does not contain the key. If the certificate file contains the key, do not use this switch. When specifying a filename, use the full path if the file is not in the same directory as the Internet Agent program.
Specifies the private key password. If the key does not require a password, do not use this switch.
Enables the Internet Agent to use a secure connection to other SMTP hosts. The SMTP host must also be enabled to use SSL or TLS (Transport Layer Security); if it is not, a non-secure connection is used.
Enables the Internet Agent to use a secure connection to a Web browser being used to display the Internet Agent Web console. The Web browser must also be enabled to use SSL; if it is not, a non-secure connection is used.
Disables, enables, or requires secure (SSL) connections between POP3 clients and the Internet Agent.
Syntax: /popssl-enabled|disabled|required
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
enabled |
The POP3 client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used. By default, the Internet Agent listens for SSL connections on port 995 and non-SSL connections on port 110. You can use the /popsport and /popport switches to change these ports. |
required |
The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 995 and port 110. Non-SSL connections are denied. You can use the /popsport and /popport switches to change these ports. |
disabled |
The Internet Agent listens for connections only on port 110, and the connections are not secure. You can use the /popport switch to change this port. |
Disables, enables, or requires secure (SSL) connections between IMAP4 clients and the Internet Agent.
Syntax: /IMAP4ssl-enabled|disabled|required
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
enabled |
The IMAP4 client determines whether an SSL connection or non-SSL connection is used. By default, the Internet Agent listens for SSL connections on port 993 and non-SSL connections on port 143. You can use the /imapsport and /imapport switches to change these ports. |
required |
The Internet Agent forces SSL connections on port 993 and port 143. Non-SSL connections are denied. You can use the /imapsport and /imapport switches to change these ports. |
disabled |
The Internet Agent listens for connections only on port 143, and the connections are not secure. You can use the /imapport switch to change this port. |
Instructs the Internet Agent to use a secure (SSL) connection with an LDAP server. For more information about why the Internet Agent would need to connect to an LDAP server, see LDAP Switches
