We've disabled SSL all together on our F5 but we still allow TLSv1, TLSv1.1 and 1.2. We notice that most of our clients are hitting us on TLSv1 even though we support 1.2. Our clients have stated tha...

Ok i didn't type that command to verify, i typed just "tmm --clientcipher DEFAULT"...you're right, that does look to have taken care of it.
