Security

This section describes the security directive in magnus.conf, which affects server access and security issues for Proxy Server 4.

Security Directive

The Security directive globally enables or disables SSL by making certificates available to the server instance. This directive must be on for the server to use SSL. If this directive enabled, the user is prompted for the administrator password in order to access certificates, and so on.

When you create a secure listen socket through the Server Manager, security is automatically turned on globally in magnus.conf. When you create a secure listen socket manually in server.xml, security must be turned on by editing magnus.conf.

Syntax
