1) If CPACF is available, I believe it will be used 2) IIRC, TLS uses symmetric key 3) Encryption generally incurs fairly significant overhead. IIRC, TCPIP will offload this work to a zIIP if available.
HTH, <snip> as the subject , a couple of questions to be clarified . from z10+ , with z/OS V1.11+ 1) I know z/OS FTP client support SSL/TLS , But no idea whether the transferred data encrypted via HW crypto (CPACF) ? 2) If yes , what kind of key , symemtric key ? asymmestric key ? 3) is it signifcant CPU overhead comparing with none SSL ftping ? </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
