Cipher List
The cipher list in this text box is a list of one or more cipher strings separated by colons.
Commas or spaces are also accepted as separators but colons are normally used. The actual
cipher string can take several different forms. It can consist of a single cipher suite such as
RC4-SHA. It can represent a list of cipher suites containing a certain algorithm or cipher
suites of a certain type. For example, SHA1 represents all cipher suites using the SHA1
digest algorithm and SSLv3 represents all SSL v3 algorithms. Lists of cipher suites can be
combined in a single cipher string using the “+” character. This forms the logical AND
operation. For example, SHA1+DES represents all cipher suites containing SHA1 and DES
algorithms. If left empty, the cipher list is not used.

Apply to Destination IP Address
The value in this text box allows the configuration of multiple SSL destinations, each having
a different certificate/key pair. When set, this parameter will lock the SSL client settings to
a specific IP address. If this parameter is left blank, the configured SSL client settings will
be used for any connection that requires SSL.
As is usual with the tables on the configuration web pages, the relevant and appropriate
parameters are selected and the Add button on the right-hand side is clicked to add the
entry into the table. Once an entry has been added, it may be removed by clicking the
Delete button that will appear in the right-hand column.

Configuration – Network > SSL > SSL Server
This page describes the parameters needed to configure the SSL server.
Server Certificate Filename
The file containing the server certificate is selected from this drop-down list.
Client Private Key Filename
The file containing the private key that matches the above certificate is selected from this
drop-down list.
SSL Version
The version of the SSL protocol to use, is selected from this drop-down list. Selecting “Any”
allows the use of any version. The available options are; Any, TLSv1 only, SSLv3 only and
SSLv2 only.
