Nimbostratushandshake_failure errors during load test
I'm using BIG-IP 11.5.1 and using TLSv1.2.
I'm testing load on our servers using JMeter GUI,
When I submit from windows machine more than 150 threads using JMeter to specific domain I get handshake_failure errors as
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure
and Connection reset:
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
I can submit request using specific cipher suite(s), Is there a specific cipher suite(s) to send with the request that will prevent/reduce such errors? Is there a different configuration I should change/look into?

if i were you, i would try with a few hardware accelerated ciphers to see if there is any difference.

jmetertea_34465We tried changing web acceleration profiles but still got same issue, is there a specific settings that can help?

how come it became web acceleration? i thought you were getting ssl handshake failure.

My mistake, About the link you posted, my platform is Z100 not found in link, can you advice or which SSL algorithms is relevant to Z100 platform?
