Hi
Further to the post, what's the correct syntax to replace DH
with RSA encryption?
Choose which of the options below are correct:
1) SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:HIGH:MEDIUM:
!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
2) SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:
!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
3) SSLCipherSuite !ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:
!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
4) SSLCipherSuite !ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:
!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
5) SSLCipherSuite !ADH:RC4+RSA:
!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM
What does ALL represent?
Thanks
