      We are trying to setup TLS (TLSv1.2)connection with one of our vendor who is using CorePoint. This is outbound connection from us. Vendor has provided Certificate (.cer) which did not have private key attached. According to Vendor private key is only needed on their side to establish the trust. We are currently on 19.1 and I see in the SSL config under client mode – three things are required Certificate file, Private key and password. is there a way to establish the connectivity just using public key?

      Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

          As i remember right you can skip the private key under client mode for SFTP
          For a http-client you maybe can use the curl option for using a certificate in a clientanon setup

            Hi Ab, Thank you for your response. Can we do the same thing with TCP/IP connection? We are trying to set this up via TCP/IP connection.
