+### Problems With Enabling SSL Encryption
+
+Due to a limitation in Netty's `SsLHandler` (v4.0.27), it does not work well together with GCM enabled cypher suites. 
+It can cause transmission failures between Flink TaskManager's which manifest in a `LocalTransportException`.
+Therefore, it is highly recommended to either set the `security.ssl.algorithms` configuration to `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA` when enabling SSL encryption or to disable SSL encryption between TaskManagers via `taskmanager.data.ssl.enabled: false`.
