For documentation on how to SSL-enable the AppServer, see:
OpenEdge Getting Started: Core Business Services - Security and Auditing, Chapter 6, "SSL in OpenEdge"
OpenEdge Application Server: Administration, Chapter 2, "Configuring and Managing the AppServer > Run-time components and operation > SSL-enabled AppServer operation"
.
For information on deploying SSL certificates, see:
OpenEdge Development: Open Client Introduction and Programming, Chapter 2, "Configuration > Managing Open Client root digital certificates".
For additional information on both of the above topics:
OpenEdge Application Server: Developing AppServer Applications, Chapter 4, "Design and Implementation Considerations > Security considerations > Secure Sockets Layer"
In addition to the information about deploying certificates, the main information necessary for ABL AppServer clients is the parameters to the server object CONNECT() method (the "connection string"). These connection parameters are documented in:
OpenEdge Development: ABL Reference, "Handle Attributes and Methods Reference > CONNECT() method (AppServer)
For specific information about making connections from .NET or Java Open Clients, and about proxy properties relating to SSL connections, see:
OpenEdge Development: .NET Open Clients
