# Set up SSL for Communications to Remote Servers

You can use SSL connections to the remote server when you use the `DREEXPORTREMOTE` index action.

You must configure an `SSLOptions` configuration section in the IDOL Content component configuration file. For example:

    [SSLOptions1]
    SSLMethod=TLSV1.2
    SSLCertificate=host1.crt
    SSLPrivateKey=host1.key
    SSLCACertificate=trusted.crt

When you send the `DREEXPORTREMOTE` index action, set the `SSLConfig` action parameter to the name of the configuration section where you configure the SSL options. For example:

    http://localhost:20001/DREEXPORTREMOTE?&TargetEngineHost=banff&TargetEnginePort=20200&Delete=True&Blocking=True&BatchSize=10000&SSLConfig=SSLOptions1

In this example, the IDOL Content component uses the SSL configuration options from the `[SSLOptions1]` configuration section to contact the remote server.
