Reflection Certificate Manager

Click this option to use certificates managed by the Reflection Certificate Manager to authenticate host connections.

Verify host certificate name

Validates the certificate by ensuring that the name on the certificate is the same as the host to which the connection is being made.

Use CRL

Determines whether a certificate can be trusted by making sure that it isn't included in the Certificate Authority's certificate revocation list (CRL).

Use OCSP

Determines whether a certificate can be trusted by having an online certificate status protocol (OCSP) responder respond to certificate status requests. The OCSP returns one of three digitally signed responses: "good", "revoked", and "unknown". Using an OCSP removes the need for servers and/or clients to retrieve and sort through large CRLs.
