OpenEdge provides utilities to create and manage key and certificate stores that enable your OpenEdge servers and clients to use the full capabilities of SSL. For all OpenEdge clients and servers, OpenEdge also installs built-in key and certificate stores that provide a simple, default SSL implementation for applications that require a minimal level of SSL support. SSL servers and clients have different SSL configuration requirements. So, if your SSL server is also an SSL client of some other SSL server, you must configure your application for both.
Note: Be very sure you need SSL before using this option. SSL incurs more or less heavy performance penalties, depending on resources and load.
