xStack DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual

Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.

enable ssl

Purpose

To enable the SSL function on the Switch.

Syntax

enable ssl {ciphersuite {RSA_with_RC4_128_MD5

 

RSA_with_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

 

DHE_DSS_with_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

 

RSA_EXPORT_with_RC4_40_MD5}}

Description

This command will enable SSL on the Switch by implementing any

 

one or combination of listed ciphersuites on the Switch. Entering this

 

command without a parameter will enable the SSL status on the

 

Switch. Enabling SSL will disable the web-manager on the Switch.

Parameters

ciphersuite - A security string that determines the exact

 

cryptographic parameters, specific encryption algorithms and key

 

sizes to be used for an authentication session. The user may choose

 

any combination of the following:

 

RSA_with_RC4_128_MD5 – This ciphersuite combines the

 

RSA key exchange, stream cipher RC4 encryption with 128-bit

 

keys and the MD5 Hash Algorithm.

 

RSA_with_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA - This ciphersuite

 

combines the RSA key exchange, CBC Block Cipher

 

3DES_EDE encryption and the SHA Hash Algorithm.

 

DHE_DSS_with_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA - This ciphersuite

 

combines the DSA Diffie Hellman key exchange, CBC Block

 

Cipher 3DES_EDE encryption and SHA Hash Algorithm.

 

RSA_EXPORT_with_RC4_40_MD5 - This ciphersuite

 

combines the RSA Export key exchange, stream cipher RC4

 

encryption with 40-bit keys.

 

The ciphersuites are enabled by default on the Switch, yet the SSL

 

status is disabled by default. Enabling SSL with a ciphersuite will not

 

enable the SSL status on the Switch.

Restrictions

Only administrator-level users can issue this command.

 

 

Example usage:

To enable SSL on the Switch for all ciphersuites:

DES-6500:4#enable ssl

Command: enable ssl

Note: Web will be disabled if SSL is enabled.

Success.

DES-6500:4#

NOTE: Enabling SSL on the Switch will enable all ciphersuites, upon initial configuration. To utilize a particular ciphersuite, the user must eliminate other ciphersuites by using the disable ssl command along with the appropriate ciphersuites.
