Configuring Security Protocols and
Cipher Suites on a View Connection
Server Instance or on a Security
Server 4
You can congure the security protocols and cipher suites that are accepted by View Connection Server. You
can dene a global acceptance policy that applies to all View Connection Server instances in a replicated
group, or you can dene an acceptance policy for individual View Connection Server instances and security
servers.
You also can congure the security protocols and cipher suites that View Connection Server instances
propose when connecting to vCenter Server and View Composer. You can dene a global proposal policy
that applies to all View Connection Server instances in a replicated group. You cannot dene individual
instances to opt out of a global proposal policy.
N The security seings for View Connection Server do not apply to Blast Secure Gateway (BSG). You
must congure security for BSG separately. See Chapter 5, “Conguring Security Protocols and Cipher
Suites for Blast Secure Gateway,” on page 29.
Oracle's Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy les are included as standard, allowing 256-bit keys by
default.
