Encryption?

Post by AlexinWonderland »

I noticed that you have a choice of Encryption Mode under the Privacy Tab

* Prefer
* Allow
* Require

What do they mean? I understand encryption but these 3 terms ??? :o

Require means to only connect if the peer is offering an encrypted connection.

Allow means to accept an encrypted connection, if offered.

Prefer means given a choice, stick with encrypted connections.
