SSL Keys
This screen is where you can manage your SSL keys and certificates that are used for SSL termination.
This is also where you can specify cipher restrictions.
The WebMux supports SSL V2, SSL V3, and TLS V1 with RSA key length from 512, 1024, 2048,
4096, and 8192-bit. For each WebMux™, one can have 32 SSL certificates: Any key can be active
or not active. The first line of the private key is the comment. See included two sample keys for
details. If there is no comment line in the key, it will be blank. If there is no key, it will display “(key
and certificate unset).”
Key length can be from 512 to 8192. RSA key length 1024 is also called 128 bit strong encryption.
At the bottom of the screen you will see the option to choose encryption protocols allowed. This will
enable you to restrict SSL connections that do not follow the minimum protocol. If there are already
active farms using SSL Termination, then changing this setting will require you to reboot the
WebMux to activate changes. If you decide not to reboot, existing farms will run under the previous
criteria and new farms will follow the new criteria. Rebooting the WebMux will ensure that ALL the
farms with SSL Termination will adhere to the new protocol requirement.
