Awesome! :)

SSL is a standard protocol, so I believe we can use different solutions on our
sides, and they should talk.

Since my Netserial supports SSL, I think it's easier for me to enable SSL in
my current configuration. However, I can only do this when you have your side
ready to receive SSL connections.

I think you should install another Front Door task/modem for this, using the
same node (21:3/100) but a different port than 24558. Is this possible?
If not, we can try a different node address.

Another thing is we will need a certificate. Maybe a self-signed will do the
job for now. And we just need to remove verification. Than, we can issue a
proper ones signed by a CA (maybe we can create one, and exchange its root
certificate).

What do you think? :)

Let me know if you need any help on configuring your side.
When it's ready, and I can configure mine and test it. :)

Regards,
Ioram
