"TLS exchange" warning (W1041)

Hi Guys,

I am using Citect 2018 R2 and getting a warning which do not know how to fix:

"TLS exchange, if enable, will not succeed using an IP address" (W1041).

When I double click the warning on teh compile results list, it takes me to the Network Address definition form but nothing there refers to TLS.

Any ideas as to how to fix this warning?

Thank you,

Jhon

  • Hi,

    Some more info on this.

    If encryption is enabled in your system and contents of the 'Address' field in the network address table is set to an IP address, then the
    TLS exchange will not succeed. To resolve this, you need to configure the computer name of the server in the 'DNS Name' field in the computers table.

    This is step is not needed if the 'Address' field in the network address table has been configured with a machine name.

    As it is not known what the encryption settings are going to be on the destination machine(s), this is validated at compile time (so even if you do not use encryption at all).

    An alternative approach would be the suppress the compiler warning for the time being:
    [CtEdit]SuppressCompilerWarning=W1041
