Great article, but I'd appreciate it if you'd put descriptions (altText), under your images so that users reading your information using screen readers have an idea of what you're showing us.

Hi Calvin,

Sorry for the late reply. I was out on vacation, so couldn't reply to you earlier.

I didn't include the instruction setup because there is a KB article on the same.

Here is the link: support.microsoft.com/.../245030

Basically if you want to disable or enable TLS/SSL on the server side, it has to be done via registry.

Below is a snippet from the article:

SCHANNEL Key

Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe), and locate the following key in the registry.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL

SCHANNEL\Protocols SubKey

To enable the use of the protocols that will not be negotiated by default (such as TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.2), change the DWORD value data of the DisabledByDefault value to 0x0 in each of the following registry keys under the Protocols key:•SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.1\Client

•SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.1\Server

•SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Client

•SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server
