disable ssl
Purpose
Used to disable the SSL function on the Switch.
Syntax disable 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 disable SSL on the Switch and can be used to disable any one or
combination of listed ciphersuites 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.
Restrictions
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To disable the SSL status on the Switch:
config ssl cachetimeout
Purpose
Used to configure the SSL cache timeout.
Syntax config ssl cachetimeout timeout <value 60-86400>
Description
This command will set the time between a new key exchange between a client and a host
using the SSL function. A new SSL session is established every time the client and host go
through a key exchange. Specifying a longer timeout will allow the SSL session to reuse the
master key on future connections with that particular host, therefore speeding up the
negotiation process.
Parameters
timeout <value 60-86400> − Enter a timeout value between 60 and 86400 seconds to specify
the total time an SSL key exchange ID stays valid before the SSL module will require a new,
full SSL negotiation for connection. The default cache timeout is 600 seconds
Restrictions
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To set the SSL cachetimeout for 7200 seconds:
