CirrostratusCreate cipher group in f5
i need to create custom cipher suites in f5 bigip to enable TLS 1.3 , 1.2 and disable the weak cipher .. i have tried to create the rule but i got Cipher string is invalid. what i can do?
i tried to use cipher group (f5-secure) but there is weak cipher and i want to disable them
As far as I am aware you cannot disable just TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 for exaple. oyu need to disable all ECDHE which probably do not want to.
for CHACHA20 use

try this one
DEFAULT:!sslv3:!rc4:!exp:!des:!3des:!RSA:!DHE:!TLSv1
THE_BLUEthank you , i have try it .. when i test the ssl i found weak ciphers too .. so how to disable them ? ((TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0xc013) , TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0xc027) ,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA (0xc014) , TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 (0xc028) )) and i need to add (include (TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 ) , TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256)

You can actually be very granular with that. Take a look here: K000137907: Commands to see Ciphers and Protocols used in a particular STRING
This is a very secure cipher string: 'TLSv1_3:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:!DTLSv1_2'
This leaves only TLS 1.3 and only one TLS 1.2 ECDHE with AES256 and SHA384. All weaker TLS 1.2 are excluded.[root@awaf:Active:Standalone] config # tmm --clientciphers 'TLSv1_3:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:!DTLSv1_2'

F5 shows ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384/TLS1.2 as available but ssllabs test shows only TLS1_3

yes exactly .. and when i apply that and test it with ssl lab in show that no cipher for tls1.2 and the score become lower
