Hi,
I'm looking for some hints how to implement TCP/IP communication over SSL in LabVIEW on MyRIO, CompactRIO etc.
I was thinging about using .NET asseblies for TCP connection but I'm afraid it will not work on RIO.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

It looks like OpenSSL is already included on RIOs: https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/46257
I believe you won't be able to achieve what you want with simple TCP/IP VIs, as SSL is an additional abstraction layer above TCP. It seems like others have had the same problem before, and it's not officially supported: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/TCP-IP-using-SSL/td-p/2583817
You're going to have to implement a wrapper library to make calls to OpenSSL.
