Can client use TLS to connect to RTO?

As I know, TLS provides a secure layer on top of TCP/IP so it still uses TCP/IP.

Referring to Refinitiv Real-Time - Optimized Install and Config Guide, Refinitiv Real-time supports TLS 1.2 or later only.

Therefore, it is requried to use TLS when connecting to RTO.

Noted with thanks @Jirapongse.

@Jirapongse Client is asking if there is plan for TLC to be supported directly on RTO.

Do you mean TLS?

If yes, RTO currently supports TLS.

@Jirapongse Apologies for not clear - I mean is the streaming service (endpoint) supported on TLS - meaning connecting use TLS instead of TCP.

Yes, RTO supports TLS (Transport Layer Security) and the client needs to use TLS to connect to RTO.

Hello @David Tan

I am not a network expert, but based on my research the TCP is a transport layer of TLS.

The "transport": "tcp" endpoint information means RTO uses the "TCP" as a transport protocol. The application needs TLS (which RTO already supports) to connect to this TCP connection.

@wasin.w noted. This definitely helps.
