, in conjunction with this release.

This is a maintenance release; no new features were added.

SSL configuration

For enhanced security, you can enable and disable SSLv3 for several 
services. Services with SSLv3 disabled will use TLSv1.0.

You can enable and disable SSLv3 for Appliance Management Web User 
Interface, Proxy Services (includes HTTPS Proxy and Credential 
Encryption for Secure Client), Secure LDAP Services (includes 
Authentication, External Authentication, SaaS SSO, and Secure Mobility), 
as well as the Update Service.

Use the Web interface (System Administration > SSL Configuration), or the 
CLI (

sslconfig

).

ECDHE authentication

Additional ECDH ciphers are supported in successive releases; however, 
certain named curves provided with some of the additional ciphers cause 
the appliance to close a connection during secure LDAP authentication and 
HTTPS traffic decryption.

If you experience these issues, use the 

sslconfig

 command, 

ECDHE

 option, 

command to disable or enable ECDHE cipher use for either or both features. 
Here is a snippet of the CLI for this:
