Configuring the Java Client for Secure TREXNet

Purpose

The TREX Java client communicates directly with the TREX name server using TREXNet. The Java client asks the name server for the address of the currently active TREX Web server so that it can send requests to the relevant Web server using HTTP/HTTPS. You configure a secure TREXNet connection so that the Java client and name server can communicate securely with each other.

The configuration of secure communication using TREXNet between the TREX Java client and the TREX name server is only beneficial if you also make the connection between the other TREX servers secure using TREXNet.
