TLS

TLS is expanded two ways:

  1. Transparent LAN Service

    A network service that links remote Ethernet networks to provide the appearance and functions of one contiguous network to users, regardless of the underlying technology.

  2. Transport Layer Security

    A security protocol that replaces the deprecated SSL protocol. TLS provides communication security, privacy, and message integrity over a computer network, and is used in applications such as web browsing, e-mail, and instant messaging.

    The NFM-P uses TLS to encrypt the communication between system components.
