  [in]   BOOL fAskForClientCert,
  [in]   LPSTR pszHostName,
  [in]   DWORD dwHostNameLen,
  [in]   LONG *pCreds,
  [in]   LONG *pDefaultCreds,
  [in]   FwxSSLSocketSide eSide,
  [in]   DWORD dwDefaultSendTimeout,
  [in]   DWORD dwDefaultRecvTimeout,
  [in]   BOOL fAllowHTTPSTunnelingMode,
  [out]  IFWXNetworkSocket **ppiSslSocket
);

Parameters

• fAskForClientCert [in]
  Boolean value that specifies whether a client certificate is requested.

• pszHostName [in]
  Pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name of the server you are trying to connect to. The pszHostName parameter is needed for authentication.

• dwHostNameLen [in]

• eSide [in]
  Value from the FwxSSLSocketSide enumerated type that specifies whether the socket is on the server side or client side of Forefront TMG.

  Value	Meaning
  eServerSide	The socket is on the server side.
  eClientSide	The socket is on the client side.

   

• dwDefaultSendTimeout [in]
  The default send time-out period.

• dwDefaultRecvTimeout [in]
  The default receive time-out period.

• fAllowHTTPSTunnelingMode [in]
  Boolean value that specifies whether HTTPS (SSL) tunneling mode is allowed.

• ppiSslSocket [out]
  Address of an interface pointer that on return points to the IFWXNetworkSocket interface created.
