xStack® DES-3500 Series Layer 2 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch User Manual Configuration This window will allow the user to enable SSL on the Switch and implement any one or combination of listed ciphersuites on the Switch. A ciphersuite is a security string that determines the exact cryptographic parameters, specific encryption algorithms and key sizes to be used for an authentication session. The Switch possesses four possible ciphersuites for the SSL function, which are all enabled by default. To utilize a particular ciphersuite, disable the unwanted ciphersuites, leaving the desired one for authentication. When the SSL function has been enabled, the web will become disabled. To manage the Switch through the web based management while utilizing the SSL function, the web browser must support SSL encryption and the header of the URL must begin with https://. (Ex. https://10.90.90.90) Any other method will result in an error and no access can be authorized for the webbased management. To view the following window, click Configuration > Secure Socket Layer (SSL) > Configuration: Figure 7- 39. Ciphersuite window To set up the SSL function on the Switch, configure the following parameters and click Apply. Parameter Description SSL Status Cache Timeout(6086400 sec) RSA with RC4 128 MD5 RSA with 3DES EDE CBC SHA DHS DSS with 3DES EDE CBC SHA RSA EXPORT with RC4 40 MD5 Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable the SSL status on the switch. The default is Disabled. Enter the Cache Timeout in seconds the default value is 600 seconds. This ciphersuite combines the RSA key exchange, stream cipher RC4 encryption with 128bit keys and the MD5 Hash Algorithm. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable this ciphersuite. This field is Enabled by default. This ciphersuite combines the RSA key exchange, CBC Block Cipher 3DES_EDE encryption and the SHA Hash Algorithm. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable this ciphersuite. This field is Enabled by default. This ciphersuite combines the DSA Diffie Hellman key exchange, CBC Block Cipher 3DES_EDE encryption and SHA Hash Algorithm. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable this ciphersuite. This field is Enabled by default. This ciphersuite combines the RSA Export key exchange and stream cipher RC4 encryption with 40-bit keys. Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable this ciphersuite. This field is Enabled by default. NOTE: Certain implementations concerning the function and configuration of SSL are not available on the web-based management of this Switch and need to be configured using the command line interface. For more information on SSL and its functions, see the DES-3500 Series Command Line Reference Manual, located on the documentation CD of this product. 181
