Options version
Specify whether you want to use:
z Any—The IOLAN will try a TLSv1 connection first. If that fails, it will try an
SSLv3 connection. If that fails, it will try an SSLv2 connection.
z TLSv1—The connection will use only TLSv1.
z SSLv3—The connection will use only SSLv3.
The default is Any.
type
Specify whether the IOLAN will act as an SSL/TLS client or server. The default is
Client.
verify-peer
Enable this option when you want the Validation Criteria to match the Peer Certificate
for authentication to pass. If you enable this option, you need to download an SSL/TLS
certificate authority (CA) list file to the IOLAN.
validation-criteria
Any values that are entered in the validation criteria must match the peer certificate for
an SSL connection; any fields left blank will not be validated against the peer
certificate.

successfully match the information in the peer SSL/TLS certificate.

sensitive in order to successfully match the information in the peer SSL/TLS certificate.
locality
Up to a 128 character entry for the location; for example, a city. This field is case
sensitive in order to successfully match the information in the peer SSL/TLS certificate.
