Linux

To enable TLS version 1.2, you must access the Java Control Panel to change the JRE.

1. Download and install the Okta Provisioning Agent. See Install the Okta Provisioning Agent.
2. Edit /opt/OktaProvisioningAgent/conf/settings.conf.
3. Change the arguments passed to the agent by adding Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.2 to JAVA_OPTS, similar to the following:JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx4096m -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.2"

4. Save settings.conf.

Windows

TLS version 1.2 is enabled by default on most Windows systems.

Systems running earlier versions, such as Windows Server 2012 (non-R2), may not have TLS 1.2 enabled. To enable TLS 1.2 on those systems, see How to enable TLS 1.2.
