This parameter applies to omdtls: Output Module for DTLS Protocol over UDP.

Name:

tls.authmode

Scope:

input

Type:

string

Default:

input=none

Description#

Sets the mode of authentication to be used.

Supported values are fingerprint, name, or certvalid.

  • fingerprint: Authentication based on certificate fingerprint.

  • name: Authentication based on the subjectAltName and, as a fallback, the subject common name.
