+Feature request: tls for chardev socket (telnet,tcp,udp)
+
+Hello,
+
+it would be nice if chardev socket (telnet,tcp,udp) could have tls support as vnc does.
+
+This way we could have encrypted access to virtual character devices over network,
+for example in setup: conserver -> socat+tls <-> qemu+chardev+tls.
+
+The best would be both direction - server even client, so even the client should
+trust remote server (trustfile, fingeprint...?).
+
+Thank you.
+
+This support was introduced in QEMU 2.6 last year. Some info here:
