Retrieve a connection for the given host and port.

Parameters:

  • host (String)

    The hostname to connect to

  • port (Integer)

    The port on the host to connect to

  • use_ssl (Boolean) (defaults to: true)

    Whether to use an SSL connection

  • verify_peer (Boolean) (defaults to: true)

    Whether to verify the peer credentials, if possible. Verification will not take place if the CA certificate is missing.

Parameters:

  • host (String)

  • port (Integer)

    the port to connect to

  • verifier (#setup_connection, #peer_certs, #verify_errors) (defaults to: Puppet::SSL::Validator.default_validator())

    An object that will setup the appropriate verification on a Net::HTTP instance and report any errors and the certificates used.
