CTL_SSL_CIPHER_LIST - UEM Manager configuration option
Description
The CTL_SSL_CIPHER_LIST option specifies the acceptable and preferred SSL/TLS cipher suites to use for the control session between UEM components. The SSL/TLS protocol uses the cipher suites to specify which encryption and message authentication (or message digest) algorithms to use.
The UEM Manager can request one or more SSL/TLS ciphers, listed in order of preference. The list is forwarded to the UEM Server, which compares it to a list of SSL/TLS ciphers it is capable of accepting, and the first agreed-upon cipher is chosen.

Values
cipherlist is a comma-separated list of SSL/TLS cipher suites. The following table identifies the list of SSL/TLS cipher suites supported for this option.
The list is in default order, with the most preferred suite first and the least preferred suite last.
Cipher Suite Name | Description |
|---|---|
AES256-GCM-SHA384 | 256-bit AES encryption in Galois Counter Mode, SHA-2 384-bit message digest. |
AES256-SHA | 256-bit AES encryption with SHA-1 message digest. |
AES128-GCM-SHA256 | 128-bit AES encryption in Galois Counter Mode, SHA-2 256-bit message digest. |
AES128-SHA | 128-bit AES encryption with SHA-1 message digest. |
RC4-SHA | 128-bit RC4 encryption with SHA-1 message digest. |
RC4-MD5 | 128-bit RC4 encryption with MD5 message digest. |
DES-CBC3-SHA | 128-bit Triple-DES encryption with SHA-1 message digest. |
DES-CBC-SHA | 128-bit DES encryption with SHA-1 message digest. Note As of Universal Agent 6.7.0.0, DES-CBC-SHA is supported only on HP-UX. |
