How can I turn off certificate validation on the client?

Configuring non-server validation mode
In non-server validation mode,UCF will override the Java default implementation of Trust Manager to allow
UCF client to automatically trust certificates used for SSL authentication. Modify ucf.installer.config.xml, which is located in /wdk/contentXfer in your installed WDK application.. Add the following option within the <configuration> element:

<option name="https.host.validation" persistent="false">
<value>false</value>
</option>

Note, you can add the above following the line <option name="file.poll.interval" value="60" /> under <configuration> element:

This configuration will tell the browser client to not validate the SSL certificate on the client side. This can be useful for self-signed SSL certificates.
