Certificate key length supports 512-4096. Default ciphers in 10.2 no longer include MD5 hash:

 

 

Cipher Bits Protocols

 

RC4-SHA 128 SSL3, TLS1

 

AES128-SHA 128 SSL3, TLS1, DTLS1

 

AES256-SHA 256 SSL3, TLS1, DTLS1

 

DES-CBC3-SHA 192 SSL3, TLS1, DTLS1

 

 

So if you're looking for a 256 cipher, yes, the AES256-SHA cipher is included by default. If you need others, you can amend the ciphers list in your ssl profile.
