SSL-Policy Configuration Submode Command Descriptions

 

 

 

cipher-suite

 

Allows you to configure a list of cipher-suites acceptable to the

{RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

proxy-server; see the “Usage Guidelines” section for information about the

RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA

cipher suites.

RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5

 

RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA all}

 

 

 

[no] close-protocol enable

Allows you to configure the SSL close-protocol behavior. Use the no form

 

 

of this command to disable close protocol.

 

 

default {cipher close-protocol

Sets a command to its default settings.

session-cache version}

 

 

 

 

exit

 

Exits from SSL-policy configuration submode.

 

 

 

help

 

Provides a description of the interactive help system.

 

 

[no] session-cache enable

Allows you to enable the session-caching feature. Use the no form of this

 

 

command to disable session-caching.

 

 

session-cache size size

Specifies the maximum number of session entries to be allocated for a given

 

 

service; valid values are from 1 to 262143 entries.

 

 

timeout handshake timeout

Allows you to configure how long the module keeps the connection in

 

 

handshake phase; valid values are from 0 to 65535 seconds.

 

 

timeout session timeout [absolute]

Allows you to configure the session timeout. The syntax description is as

 

 

follows:

 

 

timeout—Session timeout; valid values are from 0 to 72000 seconds.

 

 

absolute—(Optional) The session entry is not removed until the

 

 

configured timeout has completed.

 

 

version {all ssl3 tls1}

Allows you to set the version of SSL to one of the following:

 

 

all—Both SSL3 and TLS1 versions are used.

 

 

ssl3—SSL version 3 is used.

 

 

tls1—TLS version 1 is used.

 

 

 

You can define the SSL policy templates using the ssl-proxy policy ssl ssl-policy-namecommand and associate a SSL policy with a particular proxy server using the proxy server configuration CLI. The SSL policy template allows you to define various parameters that are associated with the SSL handshake stack.

When you enable close-notify, a close-notify alert message is sent to the client and a close-notify alert message is expected from the client as well. When disabled, the server sends a close-notify alert message to the client; however, the server does not expect or wait for a close-notify message from the client before tearing down the session.

The cipher-suite names follow the same convention as the existing SSL stacks.

The cipher-suites that are acceptable to the proxy-server are as follows:

RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA— RSA with 3des-sha

RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA—RSA with des-sha

RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5—RSA with rc4-md5
