SQL Server Secure and Unsecure Traffic Configuration Help I have a SQL Server 2017 instance that I have configured to listen on multiple ports 1433 and 1234. I would like to know if its possible to have one port (1234) accept only secure connections while the default port accept both?
I have already set up the instance, verified both ports are working, and installed the certificate but it seems my only option is to force SSL for the entire instance in config manager. Am I missing something? All help is appreciated.
Am I missing something?

No. &quot;Force Encryption&quot; is an instance-wide setting.
