Use encrypted
communications

Enabled

Select this check box to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) X.509
certificate-based channel encryption for Symantec Critical System
Protection.

SSL X.509 certificate-based channel encryption secures communication
between the management console and the management server, and
between the agent and the management server.

If you feel that your system provides adequate firewall security and you
do not want to use SSL X.509 certificate-based channel encryption for
Symantec Critical System Protection, clear this check box. If you clear
this check box, you must edit the server.xml file, found on the
management server, in the <Server_Install_Root>\tomcat\conf
directory. See the Symantec Critical System Protection Administration
Guide
for instructions on editing server.xml.
