Parameter documentation

If the connection between the Web Dispatcher and the application server is re-encrypted with SSL (wdisp/ssl_encrypt=1), the server must produce an SSL server certificate before the connection can be opened. If the host name in the certificate does not match the server name the Web Dispatcher is connected to (names are not case-sensitive), no SSL connection can be established. If this parameter is now set to 1 or TRUE, the Web Dispatcher ignores the missing match between the server certificate and the server host name, and uses this newly opened SSL connection between the Web Dispatcher and the server for the communication.
