Secure Socket Layer Protocol Commands on Cisco IOS XR Software


This module describes the Cisco IOS XR software commands used to configure the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

For detailed information about SSL concepts, configuration tasks, and examples, see the Implementing Secure Socket Layer on Cisco IOS XR Software configuration module.

show ssl

To display active Secure Socket Layer (SSL) sessions, use the show ssl command in EXEC mode.

show ssl [process-id]

Syntax Description

process-id

(Optional) Process ID (PID) of the SSL application. The range is from 1 to 1000000000.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, your Cisco IOS XR software system administrator must assign you to a user group associated with a task group that includes the corresponding command task IDs. If you need assistance with your task group assignment, contact your system administrator. For detailed information about user groups and task IDs, see the Configuring AAA Services on Cisco IOS XR Software module of Cisco IOS XR System Security Configuration Guide.

To display a specific process, enter the process ID number. To get a specific process ID number, enter run pidin from the command line or from a shell.

The absence of any argument produces a display that shows all processes that are running SSL.
