The Connection Broker is a shared component included in SSH Tectia Client and SSH Tectia Connector. All cryptographic operations and authentication-related tasks for SSH Tectia Client and Connector are handled by the Connection Broker.

The Connection Broker uses an XML-based configuration file ssh-broker-config.xml. The configuration file can be edited with an ASCII-text editor or an XML editor (see ssh-broker-config(5)). On Windows, you can use the SSH Tectia Client GUI to configure the client (see SSH Tectia Configuration Tool (Windows) ).
