SSL Server Configuration
CipherSuite Enables or disables the following SSL encryption ciphers and hash
algorithms. (To access these options in the control console, choose Web/
SSL, then Advanced SSL Configuration.)
N
OTE: All of these encryption ciphers and hash algorithms use the RSA
public key algorithm.
• DES (SSL_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA): a block cipher with a key
length of 56 bits. The Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) is used for
authentication.
• 3DES (SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA): a block cipher with
a key length of 168 bits. A Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) is used for
authentication.
• RC4 (SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA): a stream cipher with a key
length of 128 bits. A Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) is used for
authentication. This selection is enabled by default.
SSL Server Certificate
Status The Status field indicates whether a server certificate is installed. (To
display the status in the control console, choose Web/SSL, then
Advanced SSL Configuration.)
• Not installed: No certificate is installed on the Automatic Transfer
Switch.
N
OTE:If you install a certificate by using FTP or SCP, you must specify
the correct location (/sec) on the Automatic Transfer Switch.
• Generating: The Automatic Transfer Switch is generating a certificate
because no valid certificate was installed.
• Loading: A certificate is being loaded (activated on the Automatic
Transfer Switch).
• Valid: A valid certificate was installed to or generated by the Automatic
Transfer Switch. (If you install an invalid certificate, the Automatic
Transfer Switch discards it and generates a valid one. However, a
certificate that the Automatic Transfer Switch generates has some
limitations. See Method 1: Use the auto-generated default certificate.)
