Certificate validation failed. Unable to connect to the service provider.
Certificate validation failed. Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.
Solution
Multiple solutions:
Cause
There can be multiple reason to the error:
- An update to the .NET Framework introduces a security check and do not allow to establish a secure connection to Anycloud BaaS for Veeam
- A connection to the service cannot be established on the port TCP 6180.
- Firewall that have adaptive security features like “deep packet inspection”, “packet inspection” or SSL/TLS inspection. This introduces a man-in-the-middel scenario and can cause issues to the exchange of the certificates.
