Does Expedite Base/AIX support data encryption over the TCP/IP connection?

By default, Expedite Base/AIX uses the secure IP network provided by AT&T Global Network Services for TCP/IP sessions, and not the open Internet, meaning that data is not encrypted. With the addition of secure socket layer (SSL) support, Expedite Base/AIX 4.6 supports data encryption over the TCP/IP connection through the AT&T network, as well as over the open Internet. To use this option, you must enable SSL in your basein.pro file and obtain an X.509 certificate from the PKI Services Web site at URL: https://pki.services.ibm.com/.
