AT-TLS Support for Problem Determination Tools

IBM Problem Determination Tools Studio Plugin for File/Manager, Fault Analyzer, Debug Tool currently does not support TLS policies through Communication Server AT-TLS.

This RFE is to add an enhancement to the Eclipse Client Plug-ins to be able to use AT-TLS rather than native TLS.

AT-TLS provides a lot of functionality through centralized policies that are easy to manage on z/OS. The server's native TLS does not provide this flexibility and functionality.

    With AT-TLS it is much easier to look at a connection.
    So you know which TLS-Version or CipherSuite is used.
    With normal TLS you have to configure all programs correct, each of them in a different manner.
    So my preferred way is AT-TLS.
