CommsEncryptionType

DEPRECATED: The CommsEncryptionType parameter is deprecated for IDOL Content Component version 12.6.0 and later.

Instead of using ACI encryption, Micro Focus recommends configuring Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connections between ACI servers and applications. For more information, see Secure Socket Layer Parameters.

You can use GSS authorization without using ACI encryption by configuring the GSSServiceName and RequireGSSAuth parameters.

The CommsEncryptionType parameter is still available for existing implementations, but it might be incompatible with new functionality. The parameter might be deleted in future.

The encryption type for returned data.

In general, Micro Focus recommends configuring Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connections between ACI servers and applications, instead of using ACI encryption. For more information, see Secure Socket Layer Parameters.

If you configure IDOL Content Component as part of a system that uses the Kerberos protocol for communication, set CommsEncryptionType to GSS.

To use this option, you must have a suitable library to provide the GSSAPI. On Linux systems, you might also need to create a symbolic link for the GSSAPI library to gssapi32.so in the working directory of the component.
