Configure the following parameters:

Encryption

Select the type of encryption that will be used for the SSL connection.

Data Options:

z

Any—Will use the first encryption format that can be negotiated.

z

AES

z

3DES

z

DES

z

ARCFOUR

z

ARCTWO

Default: Any

Min Key Size

The minimum key size value that will be used for the specified encryption
type.

Data Options: 40, 56, 64, 128, 168, 256

Default: 40

Max Key Size

The maximum key size value that will be used for the specified encryption
type.

Data Options: 40, 56, 64, 128, 168, 256

Default: 256

Key Exchange

The type of key to exchange for the encryption format.

Data Options:

z

Any—Any key exchange that is valid is used (this does not, however,
include ADH keys).

z

RSA—This is an RSA key exchange using an RSA key and certificate.

z

EDH-RSA—This is an EDH key exchange using an RSA key and
certificate.

z

EDH-DSS—This is an EDH key exchange using a DSA key and
certificate.

z

ADH—This is an anonymous key exchange which does not require a
private key or certificate. Choose this key if you do not want to
authenticate the peer device, but you want the data encrypted on the
SSL/TLS connection.

Default: Any
