Changing Cipher Suite Encryption Defaults

A description of how to change default settings for cipher suite encryption data.

To change the default settings for the cipher suite encryption data sent from the SSL client to the SSL server, add the following line to the client's preferences file. For Sybase CEP Studio, this file is called studio-preferences.xml, located in the SybaseC8Repository:

<preference name="SybaseC8/Security/SSL/UseProtocol" 
  value="
comma-separated-list-of-encryption-protocols
"/>

To change the cipher suite encryption data sent from the SSL server to the client, set the "AcceptEncryption" preference in Sybase CEP Server's c8-server.conf file to a comma-separated list of the encryption protocols for the server to use.

If this line is omitted or not included, then the cipher suite uses only the default encryption protocols.
