Securing your IBM Traveler - required by Jan 1 2017


Tags :


IBM Traveler is upgrading the security requirements with minimum HTTPS/TLS connections and certificates. YOu need to make these adjustments by January 1 2017. This requirement applies to the server which the IBM Verse client connects.

It is important to note that failure to meet all of the requirements listed below may result in your Verse for iOS, Verse for Android, IBM Notes Traveler Companion and IBM Notes Traveler To Do apps being unable to connect to your Traveler servers.

There is a list of requirements on the support page that walks you through exactly what you need to do and look for.  Minimum requirements (if connecting straight to the IBM Traveler server and not an intermediary) are Domino 9.0.1 Fix Pack 5 or later so you can make sure you have TLS 1.2 with the latest cipher protocols.

I suggest walking through the support document sooner than later since January 1 2017 is coming up quickly.
