SSL/TLS Ciphers Dialog Box

3270 VT

To access

Using this dialog box, you can specify cipher suites to use for data encryption between HostExplorer and the server. When an SSL connection is negotiated, HostExplorer sends a list of cipher suites to the host. The host uses the first supported cipher suite in the list.

The SSL/TLS Ciphers dialog box varies, depending on the SSL/TLS version that you selected in the Version list of the Session Profile dialog box.

Ciphers—Lists all available cipher suites available for data encryption and lets you select which ones to use for a session. To select multiple items, hold down the Shift or Ctrl key while clicking ciphers.

Select All—Selects all cipher suites in the list.

Clear All—Clears all cipher suites in the list.

Use Default Ciphers—Lets the OpenSSL libraries select the list used for negotiation. By default, this option is selected.
