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 They may or may not get a 302 redirect if they visit http://
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
-Few quirks with this mode when using a version prior to 4.5.2
-On some other versions when 'both' is selected, it defaults to 'mixed' (definitely does on 4.5.8)
(so please test your functionality afterwards)
Beginning with ZCS 5.0:
