The connector supports authentication with user name and password and also connections secured with TLS using a server-side certificate and mutual authentication with client-side certificates. You can also choose whether to use connection security parameters (MQCSP) depending on the security settings you're using in MQ.

### Setting up MQ connectivity using TLS with a server-side certificate
202
202
To enable use of TLS, set the configuration `mq.ssl.cipher.suite` to the name of the cipher suite which matches the CipherSpec in the SSLCIPH attribute of the MQ server-connection channel. Use the table of supported cipher suites for MQ 9.1 [here](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFKSJ_9.1.0/com.ibm.mq.dev.doc/q113220_.htm) as a reference. Note that the names of the CipherSpecs as used in the MQ configuration are not necessarily the same as the cipher suite names that the connector uses. The connector uses the JMS interface so it follows the Java conventions.

### Using a CCDT file
240
242
Some of the connection details for MQ can be provided in a [CCDT file](https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFKSJ_9.1.0/com.ibm.mq.con.doc/q016730_.htm) by setting `mq.ccdt.url` in the MQ source connector configuration file. If using a CCDT file the `mq.connection.name.list` and `mq.channel.name` configuration options are not required.
