Configuring the transport layer security modes using the CLI

Prev Next

Use the CLI commands in this procedure to configure the transport layer security receiving mode and default delivery mode for the MTA interface.

To configure transport layer security modes:
  1. Go to CLI configuration mode.

    hostname > enable
    hostname # configure terminal
  2. Specify the type of receiving mode.

    • To set the TLS receiving mode to none, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls receive none
    • To set the TLS receiving mode to opportunistic, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls receive opportunistic
    • To set the TLS receiving mode to mandatory, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls receive mandatory
  3. Specify the type of default delivery mode.

    • To set the TLS default delivery mode to none, enter:

      hostname (config) # email-analysis tls delivery none

    • To set the TLS default delivery mode to opportunistic, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls delivery opportunistic
    • To set the TLS default delivery mode to mandatory, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls delivery mandatory
    • To set the TLS default delivery mode to verify, enter:

      hostname (config) #  email-analysis tls delivery verify
  4. Verify the options that are configured for TLS.

    hostname (config) # show email-analysis
    Email-Analysis:
      enabled:                   yes
      mode:                      monitor
      interface:                 pether3
      TLS receive mode:          none
      TLS default deliv. mode:   none
      MTA certificate name:      system-self-signed
      Password-protected objs:   yes
      cipher list:               compatible
      minimum protocol version:  tls1
      .
      .
      .

    The "TLS receive mode" line displays the receiving mode configuration. The "TLS default deliv. mode" line displays the default delivery mode configuration.
