SSL/TLS properties for MFT
Some MFT properties files include SSL and TLS properties. You can use SSL or TLS with IBM® MQ and Managed File Transfer to prevent unauthorized connections between agents and queue managers, and to encrypt message traffic between agents and queue managers.
For information about using SSL or TLS with Managed File Transfer, see Configuring SSL or TLS encryption for MFT.
From IBM WebSphere® MQ 7.5, you can use environment variables in some Managed File Transfer properties that represent file or directory locations. This allows the locations of files or directories that are used when running parts of the product to vary depending on environment changes, such as which user is running the process. For more information, see The use of environment variables in MFT properties.
