# Configure Query Manipulation Server to Receive SSL Connections

You can configure QMS to receive SSL communication from client servers.

To configure SSL connections

1. Open the QMS configuration file in a text editor.

2. In the `[Server]` section, set the `SSLConfig` parameter to the name of the configuration file section where you specify details of the SSL connections, for example `SSLOptionN`.

3. Create a configuration section with the name that you have specified.

4. Set any SSL configuration parameters.

   For example:

       [Server]
       SSLConfig=SSLOptions1
       ...

       [SSLOptions1] //SSL options for incoming connections
       SSLMethod=SSLV23
       SSLCertificate=host1.crt
       SSLPrivateKey=host1.key
       SSLCACertificate=trusted.crt

5. Save and close the QMS configuration file. Restart QMS for your changes to take effect.
