Configuring an SSL Cipher Suite

During authentication between the client and server, a cipher list is provided for SSL algorithm negotiation. This section describes how to configure a cipher list for an SSL cipher suite. Using a cipher list enhances system security.

Context

During authentication between the client and server, a cipher list is provided for SSL algorithm negotiation. For the system that requires high security, you can configure a cipher list for an SSL cipher suite to enhance system security.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run ssl cipher-suite-list customization-policy-name

    An SSL cipher suite is created, and its view is displayed.

  3. Run set cipher-suite { tls1_ck_rsa_with_aes_256_sha | tls1_ck_rsa_with_aes_128_sha | tls1_ck_dhe_rsa_with_aes_256_sha | tls1_ck_dhe_dss_with_aes_256_sha | tls1_ck_dhe_rsa_with_aes_128_sha | tls1_ck_dhe_dss_with_aes_128_sha | tls12_ck_rsa_aes_128_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_rsa_aes_256_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_rsa_aes_128_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_rsa_aes_256_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_aes_128_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_aes_128_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_aes_256_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_aes_256_cbc_sha | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_aes_128_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_aes_128_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_aes_256_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_aes_256_cbc_sha256 | tls12_ck_rsa_with_aes_128_gcm_sha256 | tls12_ck_rsa_with_aes_256_gcm_sha384 | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_with_aes_128_gcm_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_rsa_with_aes_256_gcm_sha384 | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_with_aes_128_gcm_sha256 | tls12_ck_dhe_dss_with_aes_256_gcm_sha384 | tls12_ck_ecdhe_rsa_with_aes_128_gcm_sha256 | tls12_ck_ecdhe_rsa_with_aes_256_gcm_sha384 | tls13_aes_128_gcm_sha256 | tls13_aes_256_gcm_sha384 | tls13_chacha20_poly1305_sha256 | tls13_aes_128_ccm_sha256 }

    A cipher list is configured for the SSL cipher suite.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
