Connection%20and%20Configuration%20Verification%20Tool%20for%20SSL%2FTLS
Abstract
The Connection and Configuration Verficiation Tool for SSL/TLS allows you to verify Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection and configuration.
Description
Connection and Configuration Verification Tool for SSL/TLS verifies connections and configurations over the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol and the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol as a SSL/TLS client or as a SSL/TLS server. It can import certificates from your trusted SSL/TLS servers if you choose to do so. You can import and export certificates from stores.
Key Features
- Open key stores
- Open trust stores
- Create new key stores
- Create new trust stores
- List private keys
- List X.509 certificates
- Read information about private keys in key stores
- Read information about X.509 certificates in key stores and trust stores
- Export X.509 certificates
- Import X.509 certificates
- Open SSL/TLS server socket
- Open SSL/TLS client socket
- Support client authentication
- Verify X.509 certificates
- Receive X.509 certificates from SSL/TLS server
- Send X.509 certificates to SSL/TLS client
- Perform SSL/TLS handshake
- Set default connection parameters
- Automatically import X.509 certificates from SSL/TLS server

Prerequisites
- IBM Java™ runtime environment version 6 or higher
- Key store and/or trust store
Installation Instructions
- Uncompress cvtNNN.zip into a directory.
- Run <java_path>java -jar cvtNNN.jar in the directory (NNN is version number).
For example:
/usr/java6/bin/java -jar cvt101.jar will start version 1.0.1 with Java runtime located in the directory, /usr/java6/bin/.
