Step 2 Check the Validate server certificate check box if server certificate validation is required (recommended).

Step 3 If you want to specify the name of the server to connect to, check the Connect only if server name ends with check box and enter the appropriate server name suffix in the field below.

Note If you enter a server name and the client adapter connects to a server that does not match the name you entered, you are prompted to accept or cancel the connection during the authentication process.

Note If you leave this field blank, the server name is not verified, and a connection is established as long as the certificate is valid.

Step 4 Make sure that the name of the certificate authority from which the server certificate was downloaded appears in the Trusted root certificate authority (CA) field. If necessary, click the arrow on the drop-down menu and choose the appropriate name.

Note If you leave this field blank, you are prompted to accept a connection to the root certification authority during the authentication process.
