Feb 12, 2013Changing Client SSL profile
Dear Experts
I am new to this project, I have been assigned on changing the client SSL profile to protect againt the BEAST exploit vulnerability found in SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0
My question are...

Feb 13, 2013Also please could you give brief idea what services could it effect if I am chaning the existing client profile, As I need to draft an change release plan and request to approve what I am changing. as Steve mentioned, new connection to virtual server using that clientssl profile will be affected (i.e. using the new setting).

you can display ssl cipher suite list used by bigip using tmm --clientciphers command.
e.g.
[root@ve10:Active] config tmm --clientciphers 'TLSv1_2:RC4:SSLv2:!NULL:!ADH:!LOW:!EXP:+TLSv1:+SSLv3:HIGH:MEDIUM'

to test cipher, you may use "openssl s_client" or "curl". there is an option to specify cipher you want to use.
hope this helps.
