A customer is asking how would Dataminer handle communications with a device using AES encryption.
Could someone please clarify if there is some configuration needed and the required steps?

An SSH connector (protocol.xml) will be needed for the encrypted communication with the device. For more info see this help

Reading the help it looks like cipher supported does not include aes-128-gcm. Also it seams as if OpenSSL is only supported on TCP/IP link and not UDP/IP. Is this correct?

AES-128-GCM is indeed currently not supported as this list is mentioning: https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/devguide/Connector/ConnectionsSerialSecureShell.html#ssh-support-in-dataminer .
As far as I’m aware the SSH is only TCP, but I never tested it with UDP.

Would it be possible to implement the encryption in the driver?
