zmtlsctl
This command is used to set the Web server zimbraMailMode to the different communication protocol options. All modes use SSL encryption for back-end administrative traffic & the admin console.
The webserver has to be stopped and restarted for the change to take effect. Though a full zmcontrol stop/start certainly can't hurt.
Syntax
zmtlsctl [mode]
mode choices:
http - http only, the user would browse to http://zimbra.domain.com
https - https only, the user would browse to https://zimbra.domain.com http:// is denied (A few 4.5.x releases redirected if they visited http:// - this however was not a mode yet, just behavior.)
mixed - If the user goes to http:// it will redirect to https:// for the login only, then will revert to http:// for normal session traffic. If they browse to https:// then they will stay https://
both - A user can go to http:// or https:// and will keep that mode for their entire session
-On older versions there were some quirks with 'both' mode; fine from 4.5.2 to 4.5.5? but new issue appeared bug 19636
-As a quick fix, when 'both' was selected, it defaulted to 'mixed' bug 5594
-As of 5.0.5+ bug 5594 is now resolved
Beginning with ZCS 5.0:
redirect - like mixed, if the user goes to http:// it will redirect to https:// but they will stay https:// for their entire session.
