Ssl Server Policy Configuration Example - HP A5830 Series Configuration Manual

To do...
2. Create an SSL server policy
and enter its view.
3. Specify a PKI domain for the
SSL server policy.
4. Specify the cipher suites for
the SSL server policy to
support.
5. Set the handshake timeout
time for the SSL server.
6. Set the SSL connection close
mode.
7. Set the maximum number of
cached sessions and the
caching timeout time.
8. Configure the server to
require certificate-based SSL
client authentication.
9. Enable SSL client weak
authentication.
If you enable client authentication here, you must request a local certificate for the client.
SSL mainly comes in these versions: SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0, and TLS 1.0, where TLS 1.0 corresponds to SSL
3.1. When the switch acts as an SSL server, it can communicate with clients running SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0,
and it can identify Hello packets from clients running SSL 2.0. If a client running SSL 2.0 also supports
SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0 (information about supported versions is carried in the packet that the client sends to
the server), the server notifies the client to use SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0 to communicate with the server.

Network requirements
As shown in
switch, users must use HTTPS to log in to the web interface of the switch and use SSL for identity
authentication to make sure that data is not eavesdropped or tampered with.
Use the command...
ssl server-policy policy-name
pki-domain domain-name
ciphersuite [
rsa_3des_ede_cbc_sha |
rsa_aes_128_cbc_sha |
rsa_aes_256_cbc_sha |
rsa_des_cbc_sha |
rsa_rc4_128_md5 |
rsa_rc4_128_sha ] *
handshake timeout time
close-mode wait
session { cachesize size | timeout
time } *
client-verify enable

command is configured.
