Add JSSE/TLS 1.2 Support for Host On-Demand (HOD) Proxy

We're connecting to 5250 hosts today with HOD through our HOD
Web Server (HOD Telnet Proxy) an IBM HTTP Server setup as an HTTPS Proxy (using SSLv3) to provide a secure telnet tunnel from the client browser to the host system.

We also have an HOD Web Server (HOD Display Sessions) an IBM HTTP Server setup as an HTTPS Proxy (using TLS 1.0) to the HOD Credential Mapping Servlet, HOD Config Servlet and also delivers the client hod .jars through the local java client to the end user. (Download Client).

We need to provide through JSSE, TLS 1.2 support for both the HOD Telnet Proxy and HOD Display Sessions proxy to meet future PCI requirements.

    Would you consider the use of HOD Redirector to meet this requirement?
