Class SslContext

java.lang.Object

io.netty.handler.ssl.SslContext

Direct Known Subclasses:

DelegatingSslContext, JdkSslContext, ReferenceCountedOpenSslContext

public abstract class SslContext
extends Object

A secure socket protocol implementation which acts as a factory for SSLEngine and SslHandler. Internally, it is implemented via JDK's SSLContext or OpenSSL's SSL_CTX.

Making your server support SSL/TLS

 // In your ChannelInitializer:
 ChannelPipeline p = channel.pipeline();
 SslContext sslCtx = SslContextBuilder.forServer(...).build();
 p.addLast("ssl", sslCtx.newHandler(channel.alloc()));
 ...
 

Making your client support SSL/TLS

 // In your ChannelInitializer:
 ChannelPipeline p = channel.pipeline();
 SslContext sslCtx = SslContextBuilder.forClient().build();
 p.addLast("ssl", sslCtx.newHandler(channel.alloc(), host, port));
 ...
