5.2.5. RTI Secure WAN Transport

Note

RTI may not support Secure WAN Transport in future versions of Connext. Existing applications that use it should be updated to take advantage of RTI Real-Time WAN Transport as soon as feasible. All new applications should use RTI Real-Time WAN Transport. See: Real-Time WAN Transport, in the RTI Connext Core Libraries User’s Manual.

5.2.5.1. OpenSSL upgrade

Release 6.1.0 of Secure WAN Transport uses OpenSSL® 1.1.1k. (Release 6.0.0 used OpenSSL 1.0.2o, and Release 6.0.1 used 1.1.1d.) Secure WAN Transport 6.1.0 is API-compatible with OpenSSL versions 1.1.1 through 1.1.1k, but not with OpenSSL 1.1.0l or below. If you need Secure WAN Transport 6.1.0 to run against older versions of OpenSSL, please contact support@rti.com.

For instructions on installing the latest version of OpenSSL, see the RTI Secure WAN Installation Guide 6.1.0.

5.2.5.2. Changed OpenSSL static library names

The OpenSSL static library names no longer have a “z” suffix. Therefore, when including the static libraries in a makefile, we recommend including the whole path to the OpenSSL static libraries in order to avoid confusion with the dynamic libraries. See: Section 5.2.4.3 for details.
