Server Name Indication (SNI) Support
CloudStreams Server supports Server Name Indication (SNI) for Applications/Platforms websites. SNI allows multiple websites to exist on the same IP address. Without SNI, each hostname would require its own IP address for an SSL certificate to be installed. SNI solves this problem. CloudStreams provides SNI supported connections with configurable parameters such as Enable SNI and SNI Server Name.
*Enable SNI - Enable this option if the SaaS provider offers SNI-based TLS connectivity, and if you want to connect to an SNI enabled SaaS provider to send the host name specified in the Server URL field, as part of the TLS SNI Extension server_name parameter.
*SNI Server Name - If you want to explicitly specify a host name to be included as a part of the SNI extension server_name parameter, in case the host name is other than the host name specified in the Server URL field, specify the host name value in the SNI Server Name field.
