Usage Guidelines

By default, a FW supports high strong encryption algorithms.

The FW (server) and a PC (client) must run the same SSL protocol and use the same encryption algorithm. An inconsistency causes an SSL negotiation failure. During SSL negotiation, the PC sends the first Hello packets carrying the names of all SSL protocols and encryption algorithms that the PC supports to the FW. Upon receipt, the FW selects an SSL protocol and an encryption algorithm that the FW supports.

You are advised to set the high-strength parameter instead.

Example

# Enable the FW to support strong encryption algorithms.
