Selecting an SSL Security Level

Starting with version 8.0, you now have the option to select an SSL security level to enable on WS_FTP Server.

To select an SSL Security Level for a listener:

  1. From the top menu, select Server > Listeners. The Listeners page opens.
  2. Click the IP address of the listener you want to open. The Edit Listener page opens.
    Note: Since SSL can be configured only on FTP listeners, make sure that you select a listener that displays FTP in the Server type column.
  3. Under Encryption Options, click Edit SSL Settings. The Listener Encryption Settings page opens.
  4. Under SSL security level, select from the following options:
    • Enable TLS 1.2 (selected by default). Select this option to allow clients to connect using TLS 1.2.
    • Enable TLS 1.3 (selected by default). Select this option to allow clients to connect using TLS 1.3.
