https : requestCert

Requests and verifies a certificate from clients that try to connect to via HTTPS.

Value

Boolean

Default

False (disabled)

How to set

Set on the Nuance Text Processing Engine service in Management Station. If not using Management Station, set in the NTpE service configuration file (User-ntpexx.yaml, see Configuration roadmap).

Usage

Typically changed once, when setting up secure connections during the transition from development to production environments. See Securing connections with SSL/TLS.

Recommended. Enable this property to ensure reciprocal secure connections.

Enable this parameter to request client certificates each time a client (such as the Natural Language Engine) attempts to connect to NTpE.

This is an NTpE parameter. NTpE is both client and server. As a server, it listens and accepts WebSocket connections from clients such as NLE. The behavior of NTpE with regard to digital certificates is controlled by two sets of configuration parameters, those prefaced with ssl: (in its capacity as server) and those prefaced with httpsClient: (as a client).

When you enable this property, review the setting of https : rejectUnauthorized.
