Changes to these attributes take effect immediately.

Array ManagerCommand lineDescription
Connection Types--security-connectiontypes types
  • The possible connection types, and their current status.
  • Check the box for each connection type you want to make available to users.
  • From the command line, valid settings are std (standard connections only), ssl (secure connections only) or std,ssl (both standard and secure connections).
  • Disabled types are not installed on this Secure Global Desktop server.
SSL Accelerator Support: Accept plaintext on secure port--security-acceptplaintext 1 | 0
  • Check the box to enable support for an external SSL accelerator.
  • Checking this box allows the SSL Daemon to accept plain text traffic and pass it on to Secure Global Desktop server as if it was SSL traffic it had decoded.
If SSL Daemon Doesn't Start--security-ssldaemon-failmode reducesecurity | stopserver
  • The action to take if the SSL Daemon, part of the Sun Secure Global Desktop Security Pack, fails to start.
  • Choose Allow Standard Connections Only (reducesecurity) if you want the Secure Global Desktop server to continue running as if the Sun Secure Global Desktop Security Pack is not installed. Users configured for secure connections will receive standard connections.
Firewall Forwarding URL--security-firewallurl server_url
  • The absolute URL to forward all web server traffic not related to Secure Global Desktop.
  • Use this feature if you plan to run Secure Global Desktop on the same port as your web server so that you don't have to open any additional ports in your firewall.
