TSAPI and CVLAN backward compatibility

In AE Services Release 7.1.x, only the Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 protocol is enabled by default. The lower level TLS protocols 1.0 and 1.1 are disabled by default.

noteNote

According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication 800-52,  TLS version 1.1 is required, at a minimum, in order to mitigate various attacks on the TLS 1.0 protocol. The use of TLS 1.2 is strongly recommended.

This change may cause older AE Services clients, that is users of AE Services 7.0 and earlier that are using TLS to fail to establish a secure socket connection to the AE Services 7.1.2 server. In order to achieve a more secure client/server socket connection, we encourage current client applications to use AE Services 7.1.2 SDK where the TLS 1.2 protocol is supported.  If upgrading to AE Services 7.1.2 SDK is not a viable option, an AE Services administrator can enable the TLS 1.1 and/or TLS 1.0 protocol via the AE Services Management Console Web interface.

noteNote

All three TLS protocol versions can be active at the same time. This allows a gradual migration of current client applications to move towards a more secure TLS protocol over a period of time.
